Say hello to Shift Notes; a weekly podcast & interview platform created in partnership with Healthy Hospo NZ. This entire channel was born out of a conversation between three close friends, who wanted to find a way to better connect the hospitality industry as it faces a year of unprecedented challenge. Every week, we will chat with some of the key figures within our industry that inspire us most. We believe that sharing these voices of experience is vital to the future success of our industry; encouraging better leadership, community, resilience and professional awareness in all of us.

    S2 #4 Cam Timmins

    This week’s guest started his hospitality journey like many in his era, thanks to Tom Cruise’s Cocktail. After working his way through notable Auckland institutions like Ostro, Golden Dawn and Mea Culpa, Cam Timmins ended up landing a role as Spirit’s and Champagne Ambassador for Pernod Ricard. Seizing the opportunities that come with working in an international company, while also displaying a curiosity for business, Cam’s journey eventually took him to the Absolut Headquarters in Stockholm, Sweden where he accepted a position as Global Senior Brand Manager. Cam’s career path started in hospitality, before weaving through the world of business, marketing, and global corporate. We believe there’s a lot our listeners could learn from his journey - especially those who have their own sights set on an eventual move to corporate. Today, we are lucky enough to welcome Cam back home to New Zealand, and congratulate him on his new position as Commercial & Brand Development Manager for Fever Tree NZ. We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we enjoyed recording it!

    S1 #10 Jared Tuoro

    This week our podcast moves to the world of professional sports & leadership coaching. The shift notes team shares an open and vulnerable chat with @jared.tuoro who’s dedicated his life to rugby & now heads up Mana Mind. Jared Tuoro left rugby after a career ending neck injury, disappointed and devastated. 10 years on, he had started to climb the industry / rugby ladder and ended up working at NZ Rugby. Basically, for somebody who wanted to be an All Black, this was the closest next best thing. Eventually, he moved to start his own business; to help people challenge their comfort zones, redraw their belief systems & become better leaders. Jared is an incredible speaker, and this episode left the entire team rethinking some of our own experiences. We think there are so many lessons the hospitality industry can take out of this episode. It’s been a crazy year, here’s to the final interview of #shiftnotesnz season one. Who is Jared Tuoro (1:05) Stepping into leadership coaching (2:37) Most rewarding part of work; breaking through from breakdowns (5:11) Rugby, hospitality and teamwork (7:27) What helps a team thrive when under pressure (8:25) Understand yourself under pressure (9:56) Lessons for hospo from the rugby field (12:00) Building better team culture in practice (14:48) Handling confrontation, maintaining your cool by building a compelling future (17:00) Visualisation as a tool (24:00) Traits of a good leader (28:43) The power of asking a good question (30:10) Actions to build leadership skills; listening & mentorship (32:40) What is vulnerability and why is it important (36:02) Shame and the opposite to shame (39:21) Presenting in front of people & challenging your beliefs (44:56) Work life balance; what’s stopping you from finding balance (52:07) Do the one percent (56:04)
