"Success" is something that many strive for, but a deeper consideration of success yields a number of interesting conundrums and considerations around what success actually means and how one might actually go about achieving it. Best selling author, management consultant and entrepreneur Mr. Richard Koch sits down with host Dr. Pete Kelly, C.Psych for a discussion around:
- caveats and conundrums around defining "success"
- signs of healthy vs. unhealthy processes around the pursuit of success
- balancing internal (e.g., meaning) vs. external (e.g., recognition) pulls in the context of success
- the importance of leveraging both self-belief and self-doubt to achieve success
- the importance of process vs. outcome for avoiding stagnation
- a brief summary of the 4 pillars of Richard's roadmap for success
Richard Koch is a former management consultant, entrepreneur, and writer of several books on how to apply the Pareto principle (80/20 rule) (including the international bestseller "The 80/20 Principle") in all walks of life. His latest book, Unreasonable Success, outlines a roadmap for success drawn from the life, actions and perspectives of several prominent figures in history from a variety of fields who have realized what Richard has coined “Unreasonable Success”. Richard has also used his concepts to successfully invest in several private equity investments. Richard’s investments have included Filofax, Plymouth Gin, the Great Little Trading Company and Betfair. Previously he had been a consultant at Boston Consulting Group and later a partner at Bain and Company, before leaving to start management consulting firm L.E.K. Consulting with Jim Lawrence and Iain Evans.
