episode 226: Kae Wagner- From Blank Page to Bestseller: How to Market Your Book Like a Pro cover

226: Kae Wagner- From Blank Page to Bestseller: How to Market Your Book Like a Pro

You've written a great book. You've poured your heart into it. But no one knows it exists. This is the silent tragedy Kae Wagner sees over and over again. In this episode, she breaks down the most common patterns that hold authors back: relying on fleeting inspiration instead of building reliable systems, fearing rejection so much that they never talk about their own work, and mistakenly believing that a traditional publisher will handle all the marketing for them. Kae explains why a simple mindset shift—seeing opportunities everywhere instead of obstacles—can transform an author's entire trajectory. She also introduces her free weekly community, the Bold Authors Network, where writers from around the world gather every Monday to learn concrete marketing tactics, share their wins, ask tough questions, and find the support they desperately need. If you're tired of your book sitting in silence, this episode will show you exactly where to start.

episode 225: Kpunsa Mbinkar - The Future of Customer & Citizen Experience in Africa cover

225: Kpunsa Mbinkar - The Future of Customer & Citizen Experience in Africa

Kpunsa Mbinkar is a customer experience leader and Forum Director of the Africa Customer Experience Leaders Forum, where he is helping shape a more structured, people-centered CX ecosystem across the continent. With roots in frontline banking and over a decade of experience in CX advocacy and practice, Kpunsa has emerged as a strong voice for elevating customer and citizen experience in Africa. In this episode, Kpunsa explains why Africa's greatest CX strength, its natural hospitality and human warmth, has not yet been fully translated into consistent corporate and public-sector experiences. He highlights the absence of shared standards, governance, and professional reference points as a key challenge, and contrasts this with more mature professions that benefit from clear structures and accountability. The conversation also takes listeners behind the vision of the Africa Customer Experience Leaders Forum, including the Kigali gathering that united consultants, CX associations, and corporate leaders from across the continent. Kpunsa shares how commissions, country CX champions, and a growing knowledge base are laying the foundation for a common CX standard tailored to African realities.

episode 223: Mark Murphy - The Five Roles of Great Teams and How Leaders Activate Them cover

223: Mark Murphy - The Five Roles of Great Teams and How Leaders Activate Them

Mark Murphy is a leadership researcher, author, and founder of Leadership IQ, a company dedicated to studying why some leaders and teams consistently outperform others. His work focuses on using data-driven insights to help leaders build effective, motivated, and high-performing teams. In this episode, he breaks down the difference between leadership success driven by skill and success driven by circumstance, emphasizing that true leadership effectiveness must also be measured by culture, growth, retention, engagement, and contribution — not just outcomes. Mark introduces a compelling framework built around five critical team roles: Director, Achiever, Stabilizer, Harmonizer, and Trailblazer. Through extensive research, he explains that the best teams are not made up of identical individuals, but of diverse contributors who each bring unique strengths. The episode explores how leaders can identify, assign, and balance these roles to create high-functioning teams, avoid power struggles, improve accountability, enhance innovation, and resolve conflict more effectively. Mark also discusses how modern leaders must adapt based on context, recognizing when to lead from the front and when to empower others based on their strengths — a principle he refers to as adaptive hierarchy. Whether hiring, assembling project groups, or leading executive teams, he stresses the importance of intentionally designing role-based collaboration rather than relying on personality similarity or conventional hierarchy.

episode 222: Peter Swimm - Building Responsible Automation Through Context, Care, and Human Insight cover

222: Peter Swimm - Building Responsible Automation Through Context, Care, and Human Insight

Peter Swimm, owner and consultant at Toilville, joined The Business Mic to explore how organizations can adopt AI and automation in ways that enhance — not erase — human expertise. With years of experience building conversational systems and workplace automation for major global companies, Peter now focuses on helping small and midsize organizations implement AI responsibly while preserving the value of human judgment, context, and organizational knowledge. Peter explains that while many businesses rush toward AI to reduce workload or increase efficiency, they often overlook the human layer that determines whether automation succeeds or fails. He highlights the common assumption that frequently asked questions lead to uniform answers — when in reality, customer needs are often unique and require thoughtful handoffs between automation and human support. Effective systems, he stresses, must be designed with exit paths, context sharing, and safeguards that ensure customers feel understood rather than processed. The conversation further explores modern AI implementation, from natural language interfaces to the shift away from rigid scripts, and the crucial role of domain experts in training and validating systems. Peter emphasizes that organizations should invest not only in technology, but also in curation, governance, and truth management — ensuring their internal knowledge base is accurate, up-to-date, and aligned with user needs. Ultimately, his perspective reinforces that meaningful AI transformation is not about replacing people — it's about enabling them to work smarter, deepen value, and elevate the customer experience.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
