In this episode, Pete speaks to Cara Macklin, an entrepreneur and success coach. Cara grew up in a family business in Northern Ireland in hotels and care homes. She became a director of this business for 15 years until she left to create her own business last year.

 

Today Pete and Cara discuss change, development, business and mindset.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Cara has a typical entrepreneurial mindset. She has always looked at change in a positive way and had big ideas and plans. She is constantly looking at what is next, for herself, her business and her clients.


Cara has always been unique and an individual. She wished we lived in a culture where people were allowed to just be themselves and were celebrated for their differences. We know human beings are different so why do we try to put them in a system to all be the same.


Cara believes everyone has a Fire in the belly, either they haven’t found it yet or it has been put out by another person. To Cara it means a drive and something that has power over you. It can be an incredible force to help you make a positive change in the world but you must be careful because it can also burn you out.


Cara believes that if you help people on your team to be the best they can and support them through development then that will strengthen your ability as a leader and make your business more successful.


As children we are all creative, but as we become adults our creativity is stifled, by schooling, linear learning and the hierarchy. This then carries on into the world of work, people have incredible ideas but creativity is a muscle and a skill, if you don’t use it you lose it.


Creativity isn’t just about the ‘big ticket ideas’. It comes down to a micro level throughout all teams and people. It’s a mindset and a culture that is created to allow people to explore ideas, innovate and thrive.
