A Pivotal Moment

Mark Cahalane

A podcast series from Martello Leadership discussing the extraordinary decisions ordinary people have made to change their lives, careers or direction despite the risks. Some people push those nagging feelings that they're doing the wrong thing to the back of their mind and have an ongoing inner debate for years. Others, in spite of what can be paralysing fear, make a pivotal decision to change direction often risking everything. What do you do when your inner voice is telling you to make a change or jump? Martello Leadership works with clients asking this question personally or in their organisation as businesses leaders looking at driving systemic change.

    EPISODE 4

    Ep 4. Tomás O'Leary - Chief Executive, Origina

    Tomás O'Leary shares his journey starting in the travel industry to becoming a successful entrepreneur. O'Leary, who worked for IBM in the past, talks about how he became an agony aunt for a retail magazine in Ireland, which eventually led to software companies contacting him and his team for business deals. O'Leary credits his success to his constant questioning and skepticism, which he believes sets him apart from experts who can't see beyond their own industry jargon. When asked about his decision to start his own business, he shared that it was a chance opportunity that came his way. He got involved in a business that was going to be partnered by IBM, and from there, he learned to sell a wider range of IBM products.
