Nick Haley sits down with Tom Sherwood, former Lance Bombardier of the British Army’s Fire Support Team and Co-Founder and CEO of Koios.
Tom shares his incredible story, from joining up (influenced by his dad’s background in law enforcement and the impact of 9/11), to navigating the highs and lows of military life through operational tours in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Nick and Tom also discuss his transition into corporate and civilian life, excelling in the recruitment industry on behalf of massive companies like Spotify, Apple Music and Snapchat before founding his own startup, Koios – a business which leverages the power of AI to predict personality and behaviour accurately from speech.
In this episode, your three takeaways are:
1. It’s All About Resilience: Tom’s story highlights the importance of resilience in both military and entrepreneurial settings. Overcoming setbacks and persisting through challenges is crucial for long-term success.
2. Change Happens, Embrace It: Look, veterans know that sometimes the unexpected happens. It’s the same in business. When things don’t go to plan, you need to be agile. Tom’s journey underscores the skill of adapting to change and being open to pivoting strategies.
3. F*CK IT!: Tom’s advice for veterans leaving the military – go for it! Humans are endlessly adaptable, especially military vets, so take bold steps and you’ll thrive.
