The #WhatsNext Podcast

Someone once told me to focus on my strengths. I said how. They showed me the Gallup’s StrengthsFinder to figure out what I’m actually good at, and what to stop wasting time on. Then the maximiser in me wanted to go deeper on this so I linked up with an incredible human.In this episode, I’ve convinced my secret strengths coach, Suze Oh, to join me for a deep dive into how understanding your natural talents can change the way you work, lead, and live.It certainly did for me. We unpack my Top 10 strengths (yep, the real list), talk about how they show up in business and life, and how you can use your own strengths to make more progress with less burnout.If you’ve ever wondered why you’re wired the way you are, this one’s for you.If you're interested in working together:Visit our website https://nextadvisory.nzLet's connect over a quick call: https://calendly.com/philsmith/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nextadvisory.nz/

Grow your business with our 90 day business planning: https://nextadvisory.nz/90-day-business-planning/From April 2026, Kiwisaver contributions are jumping from 3% to 3.5%. By 2032, it could be as high as 6% from you and 6% from your employer. Business owners need to start planning now.Luke and Phil break down what's really happening: 1.4 million Kiwis (40% of members) aren't contributing anything to their own retirement, government contributions are being means-tested away, and the $130 billion pot is getting serious attention from politicians.We can't afford to keep paying gold-plated pensions to baby boomers while younger generations get nothing. Business owners will face increasing payroll costs every year until 2032. A half percent increase annually might not sound like much, but multiply that by your entire workforce.We cover why it should be compulsory for everyone, the temporary reduction options (that defeat the whole purpose), and why people who understand money are excited about 6% matching.The rules are changing. Adapt or get left behind.If you're interested in working together:Visit our website https://nextadvisory.nzLet's connect over a quick call: https://calendly.com/philsmith/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nextadvisory.nz/
