New Era FinTech PodcastEpisode 37: Vendor business models - why you're struggling to sell to banksIn today's episode, I'm exploring a theme from my recent LinkedIn post where I was discussing why vendors (and FinTechs) often struggle when selling to banks. One of the key issues is the vendor business model, combined with a misunderstanding of how bank budgets tend to work. Join me for a diatribe - or broadcast - straight from my brain! This is a flavour of the sort of thing I explore when I'm doing workshops with software vendors and FinTechs. Let me know if I can help you - just drop me a note or find me via LinkedIn.

In today's episode, I'm talking to you about Slush, one of the most exciting start-up (and therefore FinTech) ecosystem events happening this week in the Nordics -- Helsinki to be precise. This is both an autobiographical one (I talk about some of my experiences of the event) and a recommendation one as I explore some of the key aspects of the Nordic and Finnish ecosystem that should (or could?) potentially be on your radar.

I'm delighted to be interviewing two executive search experts - Leathwaite's co-founder, James Rust, and his colleague Gordon Stanley who focuses on marketing, product, sales, and CEO hiring.
Both individuals are enormously experienced in the business of (international) executive search - Gordon actually placed me in a number of roles and James has overseen the development of many of Leathwaite's newest service offerings across the years.

New Era FinTech PodcastEpisode 34: Zero to 10 - what does version 1 look like?In this episode, I talk about my "Zero to 10 Approach" for managing executive ideas. You are presented with a (potentially great) idea from an executive. But it's complex. It's going to need a lot of work. And although it's a good idea, fully baking it (to the tune of $10m or something similar) and then presenting it to market can result in failure -- irrespective if whether the idea was good or not.💡 Often, direct reports don't want to discourage or say no to their bosses. It feels a little difficult to challenge whether any customer will use it...

Here's the test - can your bank quickly update their push notifications for Halloween to add a little Pumpkin emoji to their transaction notifications? Leading British neobank Monzo did this on Monday for me (and, I presume, all of their other customers!)
Can your (incumbent) bank do this, easily and quickly? The answer, alas, is generally no...

New Era FinTech PodcastEpisode 32: The end of the year approachesJust yesterday I was talking with a CEO I work with regularly. He was hoping that a new project idea he'd been discussing would be 'completed by the end of the year'. I challenged this. Especially the word 'hope'. Even though it FEELS like we have a long time before December 31st... we don't actually have much productive 'delivery' time left. I discuss this story in the episode and I talk through some brief approaches for programme and project managers to be considering right now!

If you're heading up a key project or programme of work, remembering that senior management and a whole variety of other stakeholders are expecting to see 'something' from you, regularly, is very important. You must be willing to show and tell, all the time, to help build confidence and belief - especially when there are hundreds of millions at risk. In this episode, I give a sneak peek into one of the topics I explore in our "Hard Lessons in Digital Transformation" executive workshops.

(And by the way, Capital One have 50 of these Cafes!)

2023-08-0744 minNew Era FinTech PodcastEpisode 3: Powering your projects with an assurance teamIn this episode, I discuss the value of project assurance for digital transformation. It's not that popular a concept, I think because most banks tend to rely - perhaps obviously - on their own internal project teams to make things happen. But as I discuss, introducing a third party with no agenda other than your project's success (a project assurance team) can significantly improve delivery for everyone. (Also, for most of the episode I'm standing in the pouring British rain for your viewing and or listening pleasure!)
