This episode is sponsored by SHIFT. How can you pivot when you don't have a baseline?Dani Saveker is the Global CEO and Founder of GLAS.Dani was formerly a fourth-generation CEO in her family’s manufacturing business, where she spearheaded major management and shareholder restructure, led a recovery plan following a devastating fire, learned to weld, electroplate and polish, carried out an MBO, made her uncle and cousin redundant, acquired businesses and managed multiple sites.During this time, she also had three children, each time leaving her wheelchair-bound due to a pregnancy-related disability - although she never had maternity leave due to running the business.In 2009 after the challenges of the dire economic conditions, Dani voluntarily placed the family business into administration – a business that her great grandfather founded 106years earlier and was 100% family-owned.While further developing her research and solutions for family businesses, which account for 90% of the world’s enterprises, she realized that it wasn’t just these businesses that were struggling. Her research highlighted the increasing sense of overwhelm, changing nature of families and roles, the impact of technology, and loss of compassion within relationships. She also discovered that there has been a 495% increase in the prescription of anti-depressants in the UK since 1991 as well as rising self-harm rates – something she had personal experience of.Knowing how the system she’d created for family businesses had such a huge impact on lives, relationships, and business she decided to widen the impact. Dani believes that “work-life balance” is broken thinking and that we all live one complete life and need to switch to a growth mindset. GLAS (Global Life Alignment System) was formally launched in 2017 having been developed over 20 years.The GLAS Method and framework is something Dani personally uses in her life and has changed and has significantly improved the lives of hundreds of people and impacted thousands more. It is a framework to help anyone or any age to do better, be better, and feel better. Used with entrepreneurs, children, sports teams, professional services – Dani believes we need alignment and balance in a fast-changing world. Her personal purpose is to “inspire” and measures her success in terms of inspiration.Website: http://www.glas.life/--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/deb-crowe/message This is a public episode.
