Chris Kenny Interviews Me About My Why – Purpose Podcast 046
We turn the tables for this episode and Chris Kenny interviews me about my Why.
I feel most successful when I’m able to have a positive impact on the people I work with and the situations I’m involved with.
How I do that is that I lead with curiosity. I like to get a sense of what the situation is and understand how it came to be as it is. I ask a lot of questions and listen without judgement. I then try to discern what may be holding them back from achieving what they’re committed to. I then either tell them what I see or ask more questions so they can make their own assessments. I then explore what actions they can take to improve the situation.
Ultimately what I do is help entrepreneurs maximize their impact.
Alando Simpson – City Of Roses Disposal & Recycling – Triple Bottom Line – Purpose Podcast 045
I kick off the show getting personal about getting stuck. Then we get to the good stuff!
Alando Simpson, Vice President of City of Roses Disposal & Recycling Inc where they assist businesses with reducing their carbon footprint. He told me their purpose is to do our best to exemplify what it looks like to be a 21st century triple bottom line business. Another gem: “In order to rectify issues we’ve inherited, private sector needs to step up to the place with innovative business models, beyond just bottom line to the whole ecosystem (people, planet, profit).
