Quarantined? What can you build?

19/3/2020

 
Are you stuck in the house?  Have you been quarantined? Wondering what to do with al the new time on your hands? Netflix calling to you?

​Katie and I are in New Orleans, Louisiana.  Normally a hot bed of music, food and partying.  Not at the moment though!
Alan Donegan writing a blog post on the deck in New Orleans during lock down
Alan this morning creating this blog post to share with you. Focusing on creation!
We came here for Katie to learn Jazz piano, to go to the bars and listen to jazz and soak up the food and culture.  3 or 4 days after we arrived here, the state shut down all restaurants, bars, clubs, events, gyms etc. and the city went on lock-down. 

We now have many hours on our hands and I am wondering what to do with them!  What am I going to build?  What am I going to learn?  What am I going to create?

What to do in changing times....

16/3/2020

 
The world seems to be changing faster than ever before and with these changing times comes uncertainty.  This post is inspired by the fact that Rebel Business School (an events business) has had 10 events cancelled this week because of the Coronavirus.  
With change happening so quickly and so out of the blue it is difficult to prepare.  What is important is how you react.

16/03/2020 Bare shelves at Walmart from Panic buying related to the Coronavirus. Things are changing so quickly......
I don't see the rate of change slowing down, I can't foresee the next black swan event and I have given up trying to predict what is going to happen next.  What I am working on is how I react and I want to share some thoughts that I think will give you comfort and inspiration in these dark and changing times...…...

Building an entrepreneurial culture

11/3/2020

 
"The biggest challenge we have is that we can't be seen to fail" said the director of innovation for one of the biggest companies in the UK as we sat sipping flavoursome coffee, outside some of the swankiest offices I have ever seen in my life.  

I had spent an hour understanding his company's goals (to create an innovative, entrepreneurial culture) and what was stopping them (A HUGE list!). ​

Finally I asked the director of innovation "How about we do ….. to change it?"  He looked me straight in the eye and without a hint of irony said "This is not something we can change!"

I left that meeting feeling shocked, confused and with a question burning within me "How do you create a vibrant positive entrepreneurial culture in your business and what stops people from doing this?"
