#18 Using The Art Of Rhetoric To Solve Complex Organisational And Global Problems, with Tony Golsby-Smith, Founder and former CEO of 2nd Road
My guest is Tony Golsby-Smith. Tony is the founder and former CEO of 2nd Road, a strategic innovation consultancy that Tony built over two decades and eventually sold to Accenture.
Some of the highlights of our conversation include the challenges of building a consulting business from the ground up, touching people at an unconscious level to create deep transformation, the 2nd Road story of using the art of rhetoric to solve complex organisational and global problems, and hearing Tony speak about his eventual acceptance of the fact that big organisations will inevitably crush innovation.
Enjoy the conversation.

From The Podcast
The Evolved Leadership Podcast
At the Evolved Leadership Podcast, we talk to successful business owners and executives who make the world a better place. David McDermott is the host of the Evolved Leadership podcast. David’s inspiration for the podcast came from a life-changing experience during his involvement in a youth leadership charity in his early twenties that challenged ambitious young leaders to not only achieve personal success as leaders in the world, but to also lead their organisations to give back to humanity in a meaningful way. After that experience David spent two decades coaching and consulting to a wide range of organisations in both the private and social sectors, where it became quickly obvious to him that his most satisfying coaching engagements occurred when he worked with leaders who had a meaningful purpose and mission that they were focused on in the organisations they led. The Evolved Leadership approach combines David's experience of what it takes to lead a successful enterprise, with his deep belief that the definition of a truly effective leader in today's world must include making the world a better place in a meaningful and practical way, at scale. David is also the CEO of Evolved Strategy, a business and executive coaching firm dedicated to empowering leaders to run successful organisations and to demonstrate an Evolved Leadership approach to their work in the world. This includes coaching development work that helps leaders to think strategically, develop a meaningful organisational purpose, and lead high-performing teams. The Evolved Leadership podcast is part of the Evolved Leadership Project, a research study of 100 interviews with successful business owners and executives who contribute positively to the uplift of the planet both as individuals and through the organisations they lead. The study aims to show that leaders and organisations who focus on contribution as well as profit, achieve much more satisfying outcomes for everyone they interact with, both internally and externally. Check out our podcast episodes and enjoy this storehouse of leadership wisdom from successful business owners and executives who are showing the world what it takes live as an Evolved Leader.
