Über diesen Titel

 You can give someone all the information they need to be successful, but you can't make them take action. So, how do you inspire someone to take the lead and achieve their goals?

In this episode of Frontline to Boardroom, I chat with Mark Cooper who served in the Royal Australian Navy as a Seaman Officer and Cryptologic Intelligence Officer for over 20 years before working across a variety of roles, including significant business owner/partnerships in four highly successful Australian "start-up" companies.

Mark shares some amazing insights into leadership and how to inspire others to achieve their goals. He also shares his experience in making the transition from the military to the civilian workforce and what advice he would give to others thinking about making a similar move.

Mark’s approach to business that’s less about academic theory and more about practical, pragmatic experience developed through successful "outcome-focused" delivery. This shows through in everything he does, whether it be as an entrepreneur, a business consultant, or a leadership coach.

If you are looking for some practical advice on how to inspire others and lead them to success, then this is the episode for you!
