Effective communication and relationships are essential for business success. Brian Sparkes, an Executive Communication Coach and Head of Communications for Bay Angels, understands the significance of communication and community. With vast experience supporting corporate leaders, startups, and HR departments worldwide, Brian excels in preparing clients for important conversations, refining their messaging, and enhancing delivery skills. He is also actively involved in the higher education sector, making him a well-rounded expert in the field. His passion extends beyond individual communication, focusing on building vibrant communities and matching startups with the vital resources, funding, and education they need to launch, scale, and thrive. A certified ACC and ICF executive coach, Brian specializes in emotional intelligence, sales, leadership, team building, and communication. BUILDING STRONG COMMUNITIES; BUILDING STRONG BUSINESSES As someone who focuses heavily on the importance of communication and building strong foundations, Brian shares with us the keys of building not only strong communities, but strong businesses. Shared Vision: Having a shared vision is essential for building a strong community, whether it's a group of startup founders or executives within a company. A shared vision provides a common understanding and direction, allowing individuals to align their goals and efforts towards a common purpose. Effective communication of this vision is crucial for leaders, as it inspires and engages others. A clear vision creates a sense of purpose and motivates community members to work together towards a common goal. Shared Values: Shared values are crucial for building strong communities. While diverse perspectives are valuable, having a set of core values that overlap and resonate with community members establishes unity. Values like trust, integrity, respect, and inclusivity form the foundation of a community. When individuals share these values, deeper connections are formed, trust is fostered, and collaboration becomes more effective. Shared values create a sense of belonging and a strong bond among community members. Collective Commitment: Collective commitment is vital for successful communities. Each member must contribute to the group's success and growth by being reliable, supportive, and accountable. This involves active participation, sharing expertise and resources, and honoring commitments. When community members can rely on each other, trust is strengthened, fostering collaboration and deal-making opportunities. THE ROLE OF EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION The role of effective communication in relationship building and community development. Brian stresses the need to move beyond the resume-style conversations often associated with networking. Instead, he encouraged a more authentic approach that focuses on connecting with people on a personal level. Effective communication involves resonating with others, expressing empathy, and showing genuine interest in their stories and experiences. It's about being present, listening actively, and making people feel valued and heard. Brian's role with the Bay Angels focuses on bringing diverse communities together effectively. The principles he applies in his role with Bay Angels are also applicable to coaching C-suite executives in cultivating their own communities. By bridging the gap between angel investors, startups, and service providers, he aims to create a cohesive ecosystem. Developing a strong culture and community within an organization is essential for recruiting and retaining top talent. Effective communication plays a vital role in building such communities and fostering a sense of belonging and engagement.

I efterhånden mange år har en museumsreform været kulturministeriets sten i skoen. Alle er enige om, der skal gøres noget, men ingen kan tilsyneladende blive enige om, HVAD der skal gøres. Nu har den nye kulturminister nedsat et reform-udvalg og vi ser på arbejdet, der ligger foran dem. Og så vil en ny håndbog i onani åbne for samtalen om, hvordan kvinder onanerer. Og det vil vi sådan set også, så vi åbner bogen i dagens program. Vært: Jesper Dein.

In the latest episode of the Insurance Post Podcast, titled Are insurers ready for the FCA's Consumer Duty?, David Sparkes, head of compliance of the British Insurance Brokers' Association, Sarah Ouarbya, partner at Mazars, and Mathew Rutter, DAC Beachcroft's insurance advisory partner, explore whether the industry is prepared for the new rules coming into force.The Consumer Duty requires insurers to issue communications policyholders can understand, products and services that meet their needs and offer fair value, and provide customers with the support they need, when they need it.Firms have until 31 July to implement the new rules for all new and existing products and services that are currently on sale.Sparkes said some firms are far more advanced with fair value assessments than others.Fair value assessments take account of the price paid by the end customer, the distribution channel through which the product is sold and a review of the product performance and service.Sparkes said one of the challenges the industry had with the Consumer Duty was with the lack of prescription in the rules.He said: “Each insurer has made up their own mind about what they need in terms of fair value for products and that has created a whole cottage industry around this.”Rutter agreed that it is a mixed bag when it comes to how prepared the industry is for the Consumer Duty.He said usually size was an indicator of how well a firm is prepared but not infallibly.Rutter said: “The FCA has said if the firms have done what they said they should have done in terms of vulnerable customers, for example, then they have probably done what they needed to do for the Consumer Duty.“I suspect there are a number of insurers who perhaps probably haven't done everything that they could have done and even if you think you have it is one of these ongoing processes where you can always look to improve, finesse and learn from experience.“I don't think any insurer should be resting on their laurels and think ‘We've done what we needed to do.'”Ouarbya agreed that work to embed the Consumer Duty into business processes and products and pointed out this needs to be led “from the top” on an ongoing basis.She said: “The focus is really on the live products (deadline) at the momentm but they need to continually review what they do.”The trio also explore what the options are for insurers struggling to meet the Consumer Duty implementation deadline plus the regulatory ramifications of failing to meet the FCA's requirements and the ongoing work that is required to satisfy the watchdog.

Allan Sparkes is one of only five recipients of the Cross of Valour, Australia's highest bravery decoration, and attended the funeral after an invitation from Buckingham Palace. Allan shares with John his personal experience from inside Westminster Abbey, explaining how powerful the moment was. "I've sensed mortality on two occasions in my life, one was the passing of my father, and today, "In real terms, it was a family funeral," says Sparkes.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The 'Diamond In The Rough' also discusses the importance of winning the REACH Academy Championship, his favourite matches as a fan and performer (thus far), who he has learned most from in his REACH journey to date and - as is becoming a new tradition - who would make the cut on his own 'Mount Rushmore' of wrestling.

This weeks very special guest is the lead singer of one of my favourite bands....Irwin Sparkes from the band The Hoosiers and the lead singer of White Tail Falls. The Hoosiers have had so many hits including Goodbye Mr A, Worried about Ray and a number 1 album The Trick to Life. Irwin now fronts White Tail Falls which sees him take a maturer sound on his debut Age of Entitlement, I highly recommend the track Renegade! We have a waffle about Mental Health inspiring the music, the future of the music scene and of course the Anthems Really hope you enjoy the episode!
Marilyn and Heidi bring decades of research working with groups as diverse as school districts and the U.S. Army. I love a story they share about the meaning of truly learning a lesson. A lesson is when you look at the past and notice what worked and what didn't. The learning is when you actually try something new in the world and get a different result. It isn't a lesson learned until you've tried it out and it's made a difference. Today's conversation is all about how to learn lessons that create change in the context of community. Marilyn and Heidi share specific and highly practical approaches to learning together as a system and returning learning to the system. I took pages of notes on this interview and found it full of actionable insights.

It's Wednesday again! Isn't it? Who knows? What is time anymore? Let's try to focus on the good stuff. Namely, my chat with The Hoosiers and White Tail Falls front man Irwin Sparkes about his love for a trio of powerhouse musical acts: Bruce Springsteen, Guns N' Roses and Moses Sumney. We covered so much ground, folks. You're gonna love it. And you get to hear me babble a bit about artists who procrastinate. You literally can't wait, can you?
