Curious Leadership with Dominic Monkhouse

E233 | From Professional Rugby Player to Innovation Consultant with Aidan McCullen

07 Feb 2023

Description

What comes to mind when you think about innovation? Creating something new from nothing. But does the word innovation push people away from doing it, thinking they don’t have the skills? Our guest on the podcast thinks so, and that’s why he uses the word reinvention instead. And that, reinventing, is exactly what he did with his own career after retiring from professional rugby. Today, we hear about his fascinating journey.This week on The Melting Pot, we learned from the author of Undisruptible, and host of The Innovation Show, Aidan McCullen. Formerly a professional rugby player, Aidan now works as an Executive Coach and Innovation Consultant.In this episode, Aidan talked about his journey as a rugby player and how he shifted from that to a career in innovation, and became a podcast host and innovation consultant. He also explored the cultural differences between some of the teams he played with, and he dived into the Butterfly metaphor that he uses in his book Unsdisruptable to explain the life cycle and how it applies to businesses. Make sure to download and listen to this fascinating episode day. On today’s podcast: Writing UndisruptableThe cultural difference between rugby teamsThe Butterfly metaphorFrom professional rugby to innovationThe impact of self-talk on mental health Follow Aidan McCullen: LinkedInBookBlogPodcast – The Innovation ShowBook recommendationsThe Heart of Business by Hubert JolyThe Biology of Belief by Bruce H.
