In this episode, Richard Tubb speaks to Nigel Moore, the illustrious founder of The Tech Tribe. It’s community for forward-thinking MSPs looking to network, collaborate and learn from their peers. Its members have access to marketing, training, expert panel discussions and more.
This is a bumper episode, so get a flask of tea, a packet of biscuits and settle in to learn from Nigel and Richard! Nigel explains how The Tech Tribe came about, why people join and why it attracts industry experts.
He also shares his advice on running a successful MSP without working long hours, how to grow a strong team culture and how they deal with disagreements in The Tech Tribe community forums.
Nigel talks openly about how he overcame addiction to grow a successful business and how this led to meditation and journalling practices.
He shares his tips on how to tackle difficult conversations and why he thinks AI might help us better understand ourselves.
Richard asks Nigel why he invests in businesses, and not necessarily those in the IT industry, his current favourite apps and a fact about himself that always surprises people when they learn it.
Finally, they discuss who Nigel’s mentors and inspirations are on his life and work, which book Nigel has gifted more than any other, and why he doesn’t like receiving presents himself.
