Agile Ideas

Rhys Binney owns Rhys Binney, an advisory, coaching, facilitation, and wilderness experience business that specialises in the use of the wilderness and outdoor activities to build leadership, change, and strategy skills in organisations and individuals. 

Rhys has a varied background including leading the business transformation of an enterprise technology vendor as the Chief Transformation Officer, 5 years advising executives with Gartner, and experience across management consulting, sales, academia, and the Australian Army. 

Rhys is an avid ultra-marathon runner, adventurer, long-distance ocean swimmer, and rock climber. He is also part of the Consumer Advisory Board of Hello Sunday Morning and is a keynote speaker in the corporate world regarding mental health, addiction, trauma, and personal transformation. 

On the podcast this episode, I chat with Rhys about career and life in the outback and deep dive into:

  • Lessons from working in the army that apply to corporate
  • How being under-prepared led to hallucinations in a marathon
  • How to transform in life and in business
  • What you can learn from nature that applies to corporate
  • How agile is being applied 
  • Bringing stakeholders on the journey with a mindset shift
  • Changes in consulting as an industry 
  • And much more!
