Steve Dineen: ON Thinking and Acting at Speed
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Some entrepreneurs build businesses around products. Others build them around problems they can’t stop thinking about.
This week on The Merri-Cast podcast, I’m joined by Steve Dineen – Founder and Chief Storyteller at Fuse Universal, and a pioneer of digital learning.
From the early days of e-learning to launching fuseschool and Fuse Universal, Steve has spent decades exploring one central question: how do people learn better?
What stood out to me most in this conversation is the way that Steve thinks. Fast, curious and constantly making connections, he talks about the difference between improving what already exists and solving problems people don’t yet realise they have.
In this episode, Steve shares:
• Why every business needs to start with a problem worth solving
• How he makes decisions quickly without being reckless
• What it really takes to scale knowledge, learning and expertise
• How a charitable education project became part of a much bigger mission
• Why storytelling sits at the heart of better learning
If you're building, leading or growing a business, there's plenty of insight here on entrepreneurship, learning and thinking differently.
