Finnian Kelly
Build a movement – something bigger than a brand
In Episode #39, Ross is joined by Finnian Kelly – founder of Intentionality, executive coach, and an ex-president of Entrepreneurs Organisation.
Finnian has been dubbed “the Business Mystic” because of his unique ability to put consciousness into business and inspire leaders to find new levels of meaning and purpose through their creative endeavours. As an entrepreneur, Finnian built and exited two multi-million dollar companies in the financial industry.
Ross and Finnian discuss the 7 principles of becoming more intentional, how intentionality applies to your company, and how to build a movement.
Highlights
We all have the same time in the day, but some people get exponential results
You can go on a completely different path and you can define what 'winning' is
We believe if we stop being self-critical, we're just gonna become a sloth...which is a complete lie
Great communities are not actually focused on communities, they're focused on a mission
A lot of people get so focused on their benefits and features [of] their product, they forget that what people want to do is feel a particular way
People remember moments – life is a bunch of moments. What we're trying to do as marketers is, give people these moments
More about Finnian
As a sought-after speaker, event facilitator and executive coach, Finnian has been dubbed “the Business Mystic” because of his unique ability to put consciousness into business and inspire leaders to find new levels of meaning and purpose through their creative endeavours. This approach flowed through his term as President of the Colorado Chapter of Entrepreneurs Organization (EO) - the largest and most influential community of entrepreneurs in the world.
As an entrepreneur, Finnian built and exited two multi-million dollar companies in the financial industry. He’s the Creator and Chief Visionary Officer of Intentionality.com. Using the Intentionality framework, Finnian guides people to find their path, get on their path, and stay on their path to wholeness.
As a lifelong learner, Finnian has degrees in maths, physics, finance, leadership, teaching and a master’s degree of science in positive psychology. He spent 7 years in the Australian Defence Force and graduated from one of the most prestigious leadership organisations in the World, The Royal Military College of Duntroon.
Finnian's finest accomplishment to date was being featured on the popular National Geographic Documentary, Undercover Angel. This was a project where he was dropped into an underprivileged community to find out their core issues, build trust and come up with a project that would support their needs. He funded the entire program himself and worked with community leaders to form a family education center in Fakulteta, Bulgaria.
Above all, Finnian is a conscious being - committed to embodying Intentionality and inspiring others to do the same. Finnian travels the world spreading Intentionality on speaking tours, exploring new places and cultures and chasing powder as a ridiculously passionate skier!
