The Pendulum Inspired Leadership Programme has the answers for your business

May 06, 2020

VUCA is an acronym for Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity. It captures the experience of operating in complex environments. Made prevalent by rise of globalisation, information technology and now the global pandemic. Traditional industrial age strategy is not designed by VUCA environments.

Volatility means liability to change rapidly and unpredictability. Complex systems can flip from one state to another very rapidly. In systemically volatile environments change is a constant. Strategy needs to evolve from resisting it to working with it through agility and enabling adaptive capacity.

Uncertainty is the inability to know everything fully. Uncertainty comes from the large number of elements with nonlinear interactions and their capacity to adapt to local events as they co-evolution over time. Within complex environments the future emerges. Outcomes to an emergent process cannot be known beforehand. Strategy shifts from defining...

Tips To Staying Positive At Home With Leadership Consultant, Phillip Matthews

Apr 29, 2020

As a business coach, leadership consultant, former President of the National College of Ireland (NCI) and former international rugby player, Phillip Matthews had many areas of expertise to pull from when he advised on the Pendulum Inspired Leadership Programme - a world-class digital learning experience that focuses on specific themes that are critical to today’s business executives and is an efficient and innovative way to train and inspire management teams.

In this short video, Phillip has compared our attitude to this unique time with Jim Stockdale, a US fighter pilot who was held captive in the Vietnam war. He discusses the value of creating rules and behaviours that will last the unknown period of time this crisis is still set to be, rather then being eternal optimists working towards an end date which we cannot set.

Phillip’s particular interest is in helping leaders to identify the leader they want to be, achieve...

2020 Recap: Lord Alan Sugar

Apr 24, 2020

This week we are recapping on one of the most successful entrepreneurs of his time, Lord Alan Sugar. Lord Sugar took to the stage on Day 1 of Pendulum 2020. He sat for an interview with Richard Curran to discuss all aspects of his time on The Apprentice, his various businesses and his insights into success.

With friendly discussion and introductions to start, Richard Curran got down to it and quizzed Sugar on The Apprentice, namely his bluntness on the show.

‘Directness is a term that I would prefer to use and I’ve always been very very direct. What’s on my tongue is on my tongue and I’ll tell it as it is. I think people appreciate that. For a while, they find it a strange initiative, but then people like to know where they stand. It’s as simple as that’.

‘Most people that deal with me know that you get a straight answer. That’s it, end of story. That’s the way I am and that’s why I think I’ve...

In our minds, just like solving a rubik's cube, we can solve the mental issues we are having right now - but how do we do that?

You have got to magnify the positive in your life right now and shrink down the...

Apr 17, 2020

This week we will be recapping on Global Adventurer and Master of Resilience Bear Grylls. Bear inspired Pendulum attendees in January by speaking about the four things that have shaped him and the lessons he has learnt along the way.

Self Doubt

I've experienced many moments of self doubt in my life that when I look in that cold mirror, I see four things. These things have made a huge difference to me, these four words that have come to define so much of my journey, and these things have been painful at times but they've also forged me, quietly over time.

Failure is a doorway you have got to go through if...

Building Supportive Relationships with Accountability Partners by Jack Canfield

Apr 03, 2020

If you want to be more successful, one of the most vital relationships you can develop is with an accountability partner.

Accountability partners hold us responsible for meeting deadlines, accomplishing goals and making progress. They are a powerful combination of cheerleader and coach who make it easier to achieve our goals – and have more fun along the way.

How Accountability Relationships Work

When you enter into a relationship with an accountability partner, you agree to hold each other’s feet to the fire. Talking on a regular basis is essential for maintaining momentum and making steady progress toward your respective goals.

Ideally, you should check in with your accountability partner every day with a five-minute call. During these brief conversations, you’ll each state your goals for the day, as well as update your partner about whether or not you kept the commitments you made the previous day. Your partner will take notes about what you commit to...

Something To Keep You Inspired During These Unprecedented Times

Apr 02, 2020

A note from our CEO Frankie Sheahan:

These are unprecedented times and the devastation and loss it has brought and will bring about for many families, homes and businesses has been and will be absolutely catastrophic and my heartfelt thoughts are with each and everyone.

It's a worry for us all to ensure we stay protected, resilient, and healthy both physically and mentally and abide by the rules set out by our Government.

But we also need to take a step back from this and look at turning this crisis into an opportunity for your life.

For me personally as a father, husband and entrepreneur, being adaptable is what’s required by me right now. I've been fortunate to hear some of the greatest visionaries on the planet speak at Pendulum Summit - from Sir Richard Branson, Tony Robbins, Deepak Chopra, Randi Zuckerberg, Bear Grylls, Robin Sharma to Dr Joe Dispenza and have learned that it's not WHAT happens to you but how you PERCEIVE, DECIDE and ACT on it.

For me, to keep my family...

A leader’s true mettle is tested in dynamic & disruptive conditions.

Mar 31, 2020

“Leading yourself and others is always both challenging and rewarding, but a leader’s true mettle is tested in dynamic and disruptive conditions. When uncertainty is high and the ground is shifting under your feet, an adaptive mindset is vital.” - Dr. Trish Gorman, Managing Director of the Goff Strategic Leadership Centre

Leading in Disruptive Times may sound like a special case of leadership, but to many of you it is ‘just another Tuesday.’ For industries ranging from medical devices to automobiles and from legal services to home security management, Dr. Gorman highlights that we have seen new entrants and new technologies, often from unexpected quarters disturbing the established order and posing unique and serious challenges for leaders.

For example: For players in the health diagnostics and monitoring business, the feature on Fitbit or Apple Watch providing feedback on sleep quality was an early warning. To be able to detect anomalies in heart...
