Gerald is founder of the Trends Research Institute and publisher of The Trends Journal. He holds nothing back as usual with an insightful assessment of the general quality of global leadership. Celente, who has spent 45 years forecasting trends, describes world leaders as "clowns" and "scum," citing examples like Boris Johnson in the UK, Emmanuel Macron in France, and Gerhard Schröder in Germany. He argues that these leaders are failing to address systemic issues, with the middle class in decline and wealth inequality on the rise. Celente highlights the impact of globalization and free trade agreements like NAFTA, which he believes have hollowed out American manufacturing and enriched corporations at the expense of workers. He also critiques the consolidation of media power under past administrations, noting that six companies now control 92% of U.S. media. In terms of economic trends, Celente discusses the rise of gold as a safe-haven asset, with prices expected to hit $4,000 an ounce due to geopolitical tensions and inflation. He expresses skepticism about tariffs, arguing they won't revive American manufacturing and will instead harm small businesses. Celente also warns of the dangers of AI-driven economic bubbles and the potential collapse of equity markets. Geopolitically, Celente focuses on the escalation of conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine, which he believes will drive oil prices to $120 per barrel and further destabilize global markets. He warns of the growing risk of nuclear annihilation, particularly between Israel and Iran, calling it a "doomsday scenario." Celente concludes by advocating for personal resilience, urging listeners to prioritize physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. He also calls for a renaissance in values, emphasizing the importance of truth, integrity, and ethical leadership in rebuilding society.

Welcome to the Personal Development Trailblazers Podcast! In this episode, we'll dive into the power of living authentically and connecting with others unencumbered by doubts or societal standards. Imagine living a life where you no longer hide, shrink, or suppress parts of yourself—where you can finally sleep peacefully because you're being 100% honest with yourself and others. This is the heart of connection coaching, and it's what Ashur Ellis is passionate about. As a connection coach, Ashur helps individuals shed the masks they've been wearing, uncover their authentic desires, and make life choices free from guilt or obligation. His work is deeply personal—rooted in his own journey of overcoming people-pleasing, enduring two years of insomnia, and navigating the hard truths that eventually led to joy and fulfillment. Now, Ashur guides others to embrace their messy, unfiltered truths and build lives filled with ease and authenticity. Ashur's path has been anything but ordinary. Born under the Florida sun, he's taught theater as trauma release in Malaysia, built off-grid homes in Hawaii and California, taught high school in Oakland, run a startup in San Francisco, picked fruit in Hawaii, and even sailed across Indonesia. Through it all, Ashur has explored what it means to be deeply connected to himself and others. Using modalities like NLP, circling, and embodiment practices (yes, dance is part of the process!), Ashur creates a judgment-free space where clients can fully express themselves and decide what to do with the clarity they uncover. With him, there's no holding back—just the freedom to be unapologetically you.

Unencumbered - This Is Us by
Send us a Text Message.What an incredible collection! Gary and I visited their fantastic terrace house in Erskineville, where every wall is adorned with art. Tune in now to discover how they built their collection, the day jobs that support their passion, how they select each piece, and what they hope their legacy will be. It's a great conversation with two fascinating individuals—thank you, Gordon and Michael! 'The Elliott Eyes Collection (TEEC) of contemporary art is housed in a private Victorian terrace house in Erskineville, Sydney NSW.The collection of approximately 400 works (sculpture, painting and ceramics) focuses mainly on Australian and New Zealand art, but also includes work by German, Belgium, American, South African and English artists, all of which are on display. Four major outdoor sculptures extend the collection beyond the usual interior walls, tables, mantels and, in our case, even the floor of the house. The decision to open tEEC to public tours was prompted by a visit to Terry Stringer's sculpture park “Zealandia” north of Auckland and by our inclusion in Skadi Heckmueller's book, “Private: A Guide to Personal Art Collections in Australia and New Zealand” (Dott Publishing, 2015). It also follows the opening of the Lyon Housemusem and the Justin Art House Museum in Melbourne; both exceptional collections and buildings well worth a visit.It is also motivated by the realization that once works become part of a private collection they can easily be ‘lost' to public view. Sharing these works, and listening to other people's comments and responses adds immensely to the pleasure we are lucky to experience as we engage with and enjoy the collection on a daily basis.The wonderful experience provided by the recent trend of house museums, is that each venue is truly individual and unique; expressing the personal interests and character of the owners/collectors. Allen Weiss in "The Grain of the Clay" (Reaction Books,2016) has described collecting, or a collection, as an autobiographical statement. Unencumbered by the boundaries, rules and bureaucracy of public galleries, the house musem displays the passion of the collector – individualistic, subjective, imaginative and zany.It is important to say that we live permanently with our collection. We are not a museum or a gallery. Artworks are displayed and incorporated into the everyday spaces of our house, working around the normal aspects and tasks of a standard household. We find ourselves drying off in the shower, trying to avoid knocking over Jim Cooper's large ceramic flower and duck or, in quieter moments, spending endless hours trying to decipher just what is going on in Mark Whalon's mysterious and deliciously perverse paintings. Some works are functional – Michael Snape's security door - while others are more traditional, decorative pieces, acquired and admired simply because they are beautiful or significant works in contemporary (Australian) art history. While our collection is constantly growing, sometimes in divergent, unexpected directions, it's central focus is on the figure in the landscape. This theme is only loosely adhered to, so an outlier work of art can easily capture our attention and find it's way into the collection. Some works are ‘serious' (e.g. our obsession with the 1950s and 1960s paintings by James Gleeson) and others are just ‘fun' (e.g. Madeleine Child's ceramic popcorn).'

This is the first step to giving you the IMMEDIATE relief you crave and will help you to become "unstuck" as you walk the path towards a life of happiness, inner peace and fulfillment. During this call, we're going to explore your ideal life and vision for living the life that you desire. We'll talk about some of the challenges that are getting in your way, and I'll provide you with some practical tools to help you close the gap from where you are now, to your desired destination. Let's take a moment to bask in the beauty of stillness. Let us breathe in the peace that surrounds us when we are still. PAUSE (5 SEC)... In the midst of our busy lives, It can be easy to forget the importance of stillness. We rush from one task to the next, Always on the move, Always doing something. PAUSE (10 SEC)... But in the quiet moments, When we allow ourselves to simply be, We find a sense of calm that soothes our souls. PAUSE (10 SEC)... Stillness is not just the absence of movement or noise, It's a state of mind. When we are still, We allow ourselves to be present in the moment, To fully experience the world around us. We let go of our worries and concerns, and embrace the serenity of the present moment. PAUSE (10 SEC)... In this stillness, We find a space to breathe, To rest, To reflect. We allow ourselves to be gentle with ourselves, To offer ourselves the kindness and compassion we so often give to others. We find that in this stillness, We can be our true selves, Unencumbered by the noise and distractions of the world. PAUSE (20 SEC)... Stillness calms my soul. PAUSE (10 SEC)… Stillness calms my soul. PAUSE (10 SEC)… Stillness calms my soul. LONG PAUSE (4 MINS)… Stillness calms my soul. PAUSE (30 SEC)... Namaste, Beautiful

Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium I see your dreams, I see your goals. And I see you moving towards them with fiery determination. But true freedom comes when you let go of your attachment to the outcome, And instead let yourself be fulfilled by the rhythms of your movement, And fully awake to the music around you. This is one of the big paradoxes of a dreamer's life, To passionately chase the longings of your heart, And simultaneously let go of that for which you are striving. So come with me, Into this moment, Into your breath. Into your body. Relaxing yourself into a nice, easy rhythm of breathing, A nice, easy rhythm of being. PAUSE… Now see if you can imagine yourself holding your hands out in front of you. In them, you see something you deeply crave right now, A goal you have, An outcome you desire. See it clearly here, sitting on top of your hands. PAUSE… Now feel yourself softly throw what's in your hands into the air, Releasing it from you and what you want it to be. Observe it floating in the space around you, Unencumbered by your grip, And changing its shape and size and color as it dances to the music. PAUSE… Here your desires have a chance to play, To shift and evolve into what they are meant to be, Rather live in the box you have created for them. So be here, And simply observe the beauty of your dancing dreams, And the invigorating freedom that spreads throughout your body as you realize that it's really all about the dance. Namaste, Beautiful.

If this is your first time listening, I want you to know that you are so loved and welcomed here in our BE ENCOURAGED! Community. I hope you find that these messages, themes, testimonies, and/or pondering points in each episode become a beacon of light in the good and not-so-good parts of your day. We all face life —- it can feel easy one moment and hard the next. And as I muddle through the messy parts of life, like the rest of us, I need not only encouragement but to hear faith-based perspectives, truth, and grace that will spark everlasting encouragement. So if faith is a big thing for you or perhaps you are just opening up to it, I have no doubt it will speak to your heart today! Especially because I have a very special women's author (called, “Prophetic Encouragement for God's Daughters”), podcast host of “Unencumbered”, and keynote speaker, as our guest on today's episode, Heidi McPherson-Krieghauser. Heidi has faced a heart-wrenching tragedy in her life by becoming a widow not just once but twice. She has every right to sit in bitterness and anger with God. Yet, she chooses to have the courage to rise above it! Heidi has learned that “When all else fails, God doesn't”. Today's encouragement is for you, for your sister, for your friend, for your mom, for your neighbor, for your coworker, or for anyone else that pops up in your mind. We never are promised tomorrow, but we do get to be encouraged by God through Heidi's story and inspiration, today. I don't think it's an accident that you pressed play today! So come on in and grab your cup of coffee, get on your walk or run, and wherever you are….. BE ENCOURAGED!

Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium Settle your head on the pillow, Pull a soft blanket right to your chin. Swaddle yourself as best you can, And let the night's comfort begin. PAUSE… When was the last time you felt secure, Completely safe, warm, and content? It's odd that we think we outgrow those things, That we no longer need what they represent. PAUSE… At our core, we'll always be children, No matter what age we reach. Even if we become parents as well, We continue to learn what we teach. PAUSE… The lessons don't always come equally, And some you might never learn at all. But others affect your very survival, Protecting you from a fall. PAUSE… First, you deserve to know you're loved, To know you're worth the effort. And even if you're the one caring for you, It's okay to tend to what hurts. PAUSE… It's also okay to speak your mind, To get your struggles off your chest. To sleep a calm and restful sleep, Unencumbered by life's distress. PAUSE… You deserve to feel like you matter. You deserve the chance to thrive. You deserve to know anything's possible, And you deserve to keep hope alive. PAUSE… Perhaps you have someone to tell you these things, A partner, a sibling, a friend. But even if your life has vacancies, You have a life-force on which to depend. PAUSE… If you let it, your spirit will care for you, Reminding you what you once knew. Your essence is there to guide you back home, And to point out what will always be true. PAUSE… Your spirit is what keeps you safe, Planting signs along the way. It becomes your lifelong nurturer, If you listen to what it has to say. Take a breath and hear that voice, the quiet truth within. Breathe out and feel the peace it brings, let it soothe your mind to sleep. LONG PAUSE… Think about how, so long ago, Loving arms might have carried you to bed. They gently lowered you, then tucked you in, Pressing a sweet kiss to your head. PAUSE… Dig deep to remember that feeling, That perfect, carefree moment. Practice conjuring it up, every night, Pull that safe feeling back into your present. PAUSE… Think about other special acts, Rituals of younger days. The perfect pjs, a favorite story, Little jokes and loving displays. PAUSE… Picture the grown-up version of these, Both playful acts and those of self-care. Imagine each evening unfolding that way, Loving habits your young self can share. PAUSE… It's not silly to want to end the day well, Not childish or selfish or strange. Learning to tuck yourself in for the night, Can only reflect positive change. PAUSE… Perhaps you'll start to sleep like a baby. Maybe you'll wake up with a smile. Maybe you'll start to look forward to bedtime, To the chance to unplug for a while. PAUSE… By now, you know what a challenge it is, To live life as a full-fledged adult. Maybe the reason we all struggle so much, Is our refusal to admit we need help. PAUSE… You might not need the predictable type, More like a boost for the soul. And if childhood routines can help you find joy, Then they certainly have their role. PAUSE… Let your mind wander through your past, Allow it to slip back in time. For a few sweet and lovely minutes, Let those memories shine. Breathe in as you picture a littler you, capture that hopeful delight. Breathe out as you search for hints of that child, hold onto them once they're in sight. LONG PAUSE…

Maybe the reason we all struggle so much, Is our refusal to admit we need help. PAUSE… You might not need the predictable type, More like a boost for the soul. And if childhood routines can help you find joy, Then they certainly have their role. PAUSE… Let your mind wander through your past, Allow it to slip back in time. For a few sweet and lovely minutes, Let those memories shine. Breathe in as you picture a littler you, capture that hopeful delight. Breathe out as you search for hints of that child, hold onto them once they're in sight. LONG PAUSE…

On this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, host Phil Tarrant talks with Julie Toth, chief economist at Property Exchange Australia (PEXA), about the growing prevalence of cash buyers. Unencumbered by the usual trappings of steep mortgage rates, Julie explains that cash buyers are increasingly setting their sights on inner-city locations where rental demand is high. The duo also discuss the evolving preferences of cashed up downsizers, and mull over the potential implications on local property prices.

“It really has to do with this ability to, to dream and to live unencumbered.” — Dr. Dwight RadcliffSeeing justice, equity, and social transformation through the lens of hip-hop culture and Christian faith, Rev. Dr. Dwight Radcliff offers a vision of freedom and unencumbered life for the future of the Black community to which we can all bear witness.Raising challenging questions about the meaning of thriving in a culture dominated by fear, he speaks in a prophetic voice, interweaving the powerful, compounding effects of the language of the Gospel and the language of hip-hop.As a cultural theologian, community leader, and pastor, one of Dwight's many gifts is presence—presence to emotion, to the realty of injustice, and to the complexities of thriving in the context of race and gender.He speaks about the power of purpose and calling in his life, pointing out the unique insight hip-hop, rap, and R&B music can offer the human experience. He calls us to be attuned to the whole reality of pain, suffering, trauma, and struggle when discussing psychological and spiritual health and thriving. And he bears witness to fear, anger, and grief—re-sensitizing us to our pain and vulnerability—speaking truth for the sake of beauty and justice.In this conversation, we discuss:Thriving as the ability to dream and live unencumbered, and the ways the Black church embodies that thrivingThe grievous reality of Black double-consciousness that results from systemic racismAnd his personal experience as a Black man todayMental health in the Black communityThe power of sanctified purposeHow hip-hop culture and music help us understand thriving at embodied, emotional, and familial levels, beyond the horizon of rational understandingAnd how the prophetic vision of hip hop operates in the same tradition of justice spelled out by the Gospel that Jesus taught and lived.Show NotesCheck out Rev.

Perkins“Where does our pain come from? Why are you hurting? And I give you your pain and I say that you are hurting; and you give me my pain and we say that we are hurting.”Honest, vulnerable conversationsTrauma and inherited trauma“Why do we have to be Black?”“One of the things that I'm lamenting right now in our society is our inability to have honest conversations—our inability to say, ‘Hey, this happened, this was horrible.' There are ramifications and ripple effects of that. How do we address it, talk about it, and begin to take corrective action so that all of our children can begin to dream and live unencumbered.”Where are honest conversations happening?“I might not change the world, but I'll damn sure inspire the mind that does.” (paraphrase of Tupac Shakur)Socioepigenetics: the impact of genetic inheritance for emotional trauma, depression, anxiety, and the effects of social injusticeMental health in the Black church and broader Black community, and the mistrust of mental health providersBarbara Holmes on Black contemplative practices and spiritualityHip-hop culture and expression of pain and sufferingDwight Radcliff's journey through hip-hopPentacostal Holiness church and seeing hip-hop as the devil.“You're more concerned with the curse words than the cursed worlds.”“I began to do a dangerous thing: I began to read the Bible.”James Cone, The Spirituals & the BluesWest African spirituality and “holding all things together”Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five, “The Message”“Don't push me, cuz I'm close to the edge / I'm trying not to lose my head”“It's like a jungle sometimes / It makes me wonder how I keep from going under”2Pac, “I Wonder If Heaven Got a Ghetto”C.

Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium Settle your head on the pillow, Pull a soft blanket right to your chin. Swaddle yourself as best you can, And let the night's comfort begin. PAUSE… When was the last time you felt secure, Completely safe, warm, and content? It's odd that we think we outgrow those things, That we no longer need what they represent. PAUSE… At our core, we'll always be children, No matter what age we reach. Even if we become parents as well, We continue to learn what we teach. PAUSE… The lessons don't always come equally, And some you might never learn at all.

To sleep a calm and restful sleep, Unencumbered by life's distress. PAUSE… You deserve to feel like you matter. You deserve the chance to thrive.

Your essence is there to guide you back home, And to point out what will always be true. PAUSE… Your spirit is what keeps you safe, Planting signs along the way. It becomes your lifelong nurturer, If you listen to what it has to say. Take a breath and hear that voice, the quiet truth within. Breathe out and feel the peace it brings, let it soothe your mind to sleep. LONG PAUSE… Think about how, so long ago, Loving arms might have carried you to bed. They gently lowered you, then tucked you in, Pressing a sweet kiss to your head. PAUSE… Dig deep to remember that feeling, That perfect, carefree moment. Practice conjuring it up, every night, Pull that safe feeling back into your present. PAUSE… Think about other special acts, Rituals of younger days. The perfect pjs, a favorite story, Little jokes and loving displays. PAUSE… Picture the grown-up version of these, Both playful acts and those of self-care. Imagine each evening unfolding that way, Loving habits your young self can share. PAUSE… It's not silly to want to end the day well, Not childish or selfish or strange. Learning to tuck yourself in for the night, Can only reflect positive change. PAUSE… Perhaps you'll start to sleep like a baby. Maybe you'll wake up with a smile. Maybe you'll start to look forward to bedtime, To the chance to unplug for a while. PAUSE… By now, you know what a challenge it is, To live life as a full-fledged adult.

Your arms and legs grow heavy, And relax. Breathe… PAUSE… You are safe here. Nestled inside the loving arms of sleep. Free to unravel yourself, From all of those emotions. Without judgment, Without expectation, Without fear. PAUSE… So let the gentle hums of your breathing, Settle you deeper into your bed, Deeper into you. LONG PAUSE… Imagine a healing hand of light, Settle upon your chest. Let it warm you, And then slowly unfold you, Like the blooming petals of a flower. PAUSE… Feel yourself open, And relax. PAUSE… Let them peel away from you, The heavy layers of emotions, The chaotic thoughts with whom they dance. They have no place here. They are not you. LONG PAUSE… Now find your breath, The steady guide to your truth. Let her lead you into the space within, Where you reside. Untethered. Unfiltered. Unencumbered. Whole, And complete. PAUSE… Here you can release them all, Exhaling those emotions and thoughts, Into the nothingness of the night. As you sink deeper into the beautiful soul you are. Sweet Dreams, Beautiful

Just a few clicks makes it easy for you to listen on your favorite podcast player. Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium Settle your head on the pillow, Pull a soft blanket right to your chin. Swaddle yourself as best you can, And let the night's comfort begin. PAUSE… When was the last time you felt secure, Completely safe, warm, and content? It's odd that we think we outgrow those things, That we no longer need what they represent. PAUSE… At our core, we'll always be children, No matter what age we reach. Even if we become parents as well, We continue to learn what we teach. PAUSE… The lessons don't always come equally, And some you might never learn at all. But others affect your very survival, Protecting you from a fall. PAUSE… First, you deserve to know you're loved, To know you're worth the effort. And even if you're the one caring for you, It's okay to tend to what hurts. PAUSE… It's also okay to speak your mind, To get your struggles off your chest. To sleep a calm and restful sleep, Unencumbered by life's distress. PAUSE… You deserve to feel like you matter. You deserve the chance to thrive. You deserve to know anything's possible, And you deserve to keep hope alive. PAUSE… Perhaps you have someone to tell you these things, A partner, a sibling, a friend. But even if your life has vacancies, You have a life-force on which to depend. PAUSE… If you let it, your spirit will care for you, Reminding you what you once knew. Your essence is there to guide you back home, And to point out what will always be true. PAUSE… Your spirit is what keeps you safe, Planting signs along the way. It becomes your lifelong nurturer, If you listen to what it has to say. Take a breath and hear that voice, the quiet truth within. Breathe out and feel the peace it brings, let it soothe your mind to sleep. LONG PAUSE… Think about how, so long ago, Loving arms might have carried you to bed. They gently lowered you, then tucked you in, Pressing a sweet kiss to your head. PAUSE… Dig deep to remember that feeling, That perfect, carefree moment. Practice conjuring it up, every night, Pull that safe feeling back into your present. PAUSE… Think about other special acts, Rituals of younger days. The perfect pjs, a favorite story, Little jokes and loving displays. PAUSE… Picture the grown-up version of these, Both playful acts and those of self-care. Imagine each evening unfolding that way, Loving habits your young self can share. PAUSE… It's not silly to want to end the day well, Not childish or selfish or strange. Learning to tuck yourself in for the night, Can only reflect positive change. PAUSE… Perhaps you'll start to sleep like a baby. Maybe you'll wake up with a smile. Maybe you'll start to look forward to bedtime, To the chance to unplug for a while. PAUSE… By now, you know what a challenge it is, To live life as a full-fledged adult. Maybe the reason we all struggle so much, Is our refusal to admit we need help. PAUSE… You might not need the predictable type, More like a boost for the soul. And if childhood routines can help you find joy, Then they certainly have their role. PAUSE… Let your mind wander through your past, Allow it to slip back in time. For a few sweet and lovely minutes, Let those memories shine. Breathe in as you picture a littler you, capture that hopeful delight. Breathe out as you search for hints of that child, hold onto them once they're in sight. LONG PAUSE…

Why are some of us drawn to scary stories? "Because we want to believe that we are strong enough to survive being scared." In peeking into that dark side, we cultivate empathy. Few have had a bigger role in constructing imaginary worlds than renowned concept artist Iain McCaig. His work is truly the stuff of legend. We found his zest for illustration, telling stories, the creative process and living a creative life to be nothing short of infectious. Accountable only to his own validation, McCaig is an exemplar of living fully and illuminating a path for the rest of us to follow. We spoke of his illustrious career and his esteemed colleagues, as well as his myriad creative projects past, present and future. Unencumbered by a quest for truth, McCaig cannot NOT tell stories that make people smile. Despite, or perhaps because of, being left to live alone at 14 and surviving a heart attack, he is only afraid of being afraid. He left us with an irrepressible urge to draw our own stories - a skill, he insists, that we all possess. Join us to catch that itch.

Abraham was especially unique as an Old Testament model for the Christian believer. Living centuries before the Law of Moses was given, Abraham operated in faith and God credited that to him as righteousness! And Abraham heard, cultivated, and obeyed the voice of God. And Abraham enjoyed an amazing covenant with God! Join Kevin as we traced key dimensions of Abraham's journey and discover how we as modern Christians can be just like Abraham! // Download this episode's Application & Action questions and PDF transcript at whitestone.org.
“Cultures are not just based on what we measure and how we reward, but they're based on storytelling. At the end of the day, a culture is really just ‘what do we care about and equally what do we not care about'”, says Tom. “We don't care about bureaucracy, we don't care about hierarchy, we don't care about titles. We do care about creating an empowered organization, where everybody can bring their true authentic self to work.”Tom shares his journey, from being in HR his entire career with roles in banking, high tech and insurance to joining the Skyward team in June 2020. He highlights the contribution he has made from the company rebrand to the first successful IPO of 2023, all supported by the passion, enthusiasm and vision of CEO, Andrew Robinson. “We had the opportunity to build the company we always wanted to work for. I've worked for large companies, small companies are a lot more fun. It's like it's like being the captain of a speed boat versus the captain of an aircraft carrier. We can turn on a dime.”Tom discusses the IPO process and its impact across the organization. “It's been a tremendous boost to all of our staff. We shared in the celebration with our entire team. Every single employee received equity in the company as part of the IPO”Tom talks about building a wining culture and cascading information and key objectives to the entire team in a consistent way. “What that means is every single person understands what they need to do in order to contribute to the success of Skyward Specialty.”He emphasizes how hiring is based around hiring in the model of the ‘go forward' organization, where people can truly practise their craft. “People don't want to be encumbered by a bunch of bureaucratic rules. Super accomplished individuals – whether that's underwriting, claims or the various support functions - want to be able to bring their expertise. They want their ideas heard, they want to be able to contribute.”Tom highlights Skyward's approach to hiring exceptional talent and encourages applicants to know that interviews are a two-way process. “I always encourage candidates to interview us and understand if this is the right environment. We give candidates an opportunity to meet a number of different people and ask the same question to different people and see if they get the same answer.”Tom concludes by sharing an interview experience that has stuck long in his mind. “Education, skills, competency, that's table stakes. Character, drive, work ethic and never ever giving up is what wins the day. And that's what we look for in candidates.”Connect with Tom Schmitt on LinkedIn or find out more about Skyward Specialty InsuranceThe Insurance Coffee House Podcast is hosted by Nick Hoadley, CEO, Insurance Search, the Executive Search Consultancy for growing Insurance and Insurtech businesses around the globe.To discuss identifying & attracting the very best talent to your team or being a podcast guest, reach out to Nick via nick.hoadley@insurance-search.com Copyright Insurance Search 2023 – All Rights...
