Advertise on podcast: MAKING SENSE OF THE CHAOS by Future Forward Hub

20 Jahre Familienrösterei MOCAFE aus Osttirol, ein internationaler Investor an Bord und ein Gespräch, das tiefer geht als Kaffee. In dieser Folge spricht Co-Founder Martin Bodner offen darüber, was wirklich passiert, wenn eine Traditionsmarke mit fremdem Kapital wächst: Was bleibt geschützt, was wird aufgegeben, und ob der ursprüngliche Charakter der Marke den Wachstumsdruck übersteht. Es geht weniger um Röstprofile, mehr um die innere Haltung, sich selbst treu zu bleiben, während man größer wird. Weil die Zeit nicht gereicht hat, hat Martin uns hier noch ein paar Fragen schriftlich beantwortet: 1. Was hat euch der Deal emotional gekostet? Wo musstet ihr die Kontrolle abgeben? Ehrlich gesagt war das weniger ein Verlust als eine Umstellung. In meinem Hauptberuf bin ich Pilot, da trage ich Verantwortung und am Ende muss der Kapitän entscheiden. Aber auch dort ist es keine One-Man-Show: Es gibt einen Kollegen im Cockpit, es gibt die Flugverkehrskontrolle, es gibt ganz viele Faktoren, die eine Entscheidung beeinflussen. Jeder trägt seinen Teil dazu bei, damit die Entscheidung am Ende die richtige wird. Genau so ist es auch bei uns im Unternehmen. Im Alleingang wird nichts entschieden, insofern bin ich das eigentlich gewohnt. Mit einem Drittel des Unternehmens haben wir jetzt Peter Mrosik an Bord, jemanden, der enorm viel Erfahrung mitbringt. Wir sind vom „wir zwei entscheiden“ zum gemeinsamen Abstimmen gekommen, nicht weil wir um Erlaubnis fragen müssten, sondern weil wir dadurch ganz andere Sichtweisen bekommen. Genau das ist das Tolle daran: Wir erweitern unseren Horizont. Das ist am Ende mehr Gewinn an Perspektive als Verlust an Kontrolle. 2. Wer müsst ihr jetzt glauben zu sein, wenn jemand anderes ein Mitspracherecht hat? Nicht mehr der Macher, der alles selbst in der Hand hat, sondern jemand, der führt und Verantwortung trägt, auch nach außen. Vorher war ich der Eigentümer, der anpackte. Jetzt muss ich der sein, der eine Richtung so klar formuliert, dass ein Partner mitgehen kann, und der aushält, dass nicht jede Idee sofort meine bleibt. Weniger der, der rudert, mehr der, der Kurs hält. Das ist eine andere Rolle, und ehrlich gesagt eine, in die ich noch hineinwachse. 3. Umsatz in 24 Monaten verzehnfachen, welcher Hebel zuerst: Produkt, Vertrieb oder Marke? Die Marke zuerst und ganz klar. Das Produkt stimmt, das ist die Grundlage, ohne die geht gar nichts, aber am Produkt allein verzehnfacht man nichts. Unsere ganze These ist, über den Endverbraucher zu skalieren, Office und Retail, und dorthin kommst du nur, wenn die Marke zieht und im Kopf bleibt. „Escape the Ordinary“, die Zirkuswelt, das Staunen: das ist kein Beiwerk, das ist der Motor. Der Vertrieb ist dann der zweite Schritt, der die Nachfrage einsammelt, die die Marke erzeugt. Erst die Marke bauen, dann breit ausrollen. 4. Der konkrete Mitbewerber, an den ihr gerade wirklich Kunden verliert. Ganz ehrlich, unser stärkster Mitbewerber ist keine Firma, sondern die Gewohnheit. Der Kunde, der seit zehn Jahren dieselbe Bohne aus dem Supermarkt kauft und nie hinterfragt, ob es besser geht. Gegen den kämpfen wir jeden Tag. Und wir sind in einer Region, in der man sich kennt, da schieße ich niemanden über einen Podcast an. 5. Welche Kennzahl checkt ihr jeden einzelnen Tag? Ehrlich? Zuerst die Kilo. Wie viele Kilo pro Tag rausgehen, ist bei uns die härteste Zahl, denn sie sagt direkt, ob wir Richtung 40 Tonnen im Jahr wachsen oder stehen bleiben. Aber es gibt noch eine zweite, die man in keiner Auswertung findet: unser Spaßbarometer. Haben wir heute Freude an dem gehabt, was wir tun? Klingt kitschig, ist aber ernst gemeint. Wenn der Spaß weg ist, stimmt bei allem anderen auch bald was nicht. Die Kilos zeigen, ob es läuft. Der Spaß zeigt, ob es sich lohnt. 6. Wenn die Partnerschaft in drei Jahren scheitert, was war der Grund? Ehrlich gesagt glaube ich fest daran, dass sie nicht scheitert, und dieser Glaube ist bei uns dreien gleich stark. Natürlich kann über Jahre viel passieren, und manches liegt außerhalb dessen, was man beeinflussen kann. Aber der eine Grund, der wirklich in unserer Hand liegt, wäre, wenn wir anfangen würden, Probleme oder Schwierigkeiten am Horizont wegzuschieben, statt sie anzusprechen. Genau da ticken wir drei Gesellschafter gleich: Wir schieben nichts beiseite, wir reden früh und offen darüber. Solange wir das beibehalten, sehe ich keinen Grund, warum es scheitern sollte.

Die Komfortfalle: Was Förderung wirklich mit deinem Kopf macht Die Selbstreflexionsfragen: 1. Wo in deinem Business oder deinem Leben hat externe Sicherheit deinen inneren Antrieb leise ersetzt, und welche Entscheidung vermeidest du deswegen gerade? 2. Wenn das Sicherheitsnetz morgen wegfällt, die Förderung, der Vertrag, das Gehalt, der Plan B, was tust du als Erstes? Und was sagt dir deine Antwort darüber, wo dein echter Hunger wirklich steckt? 3. In welchem Bereich hat Bürokratie, Prozess oder „so läuft das halt" deine ursprüngliche Vision langsam ausgehöhlt, und wie würde es aussehen, dir diese Woche einen kleinen Teil davon zurückzuholen?

The Intervention: Engineering Your Next Evolution Reinvention is rarely a quiet process; it is a deliberate intervention. In this episode, Erika Diskancova and I pull back the curtain on the decision-making frameworks that define a changemaker. We discuss why staying the course is often the riskiest move you can make and how to audit your current path before the “drift” sets in. In this conversation, we explore: * The Logic of the Pivot: Why your greatest successes often demand your greatest sacrifices. * Neurological Resistance: Navigating the brain’s natural desire for the familiar while building a future-forward mission. * Strategic Courage: Making the hard choices today to ensure relevance tomorrow.

I had a traumatized mother who wasn't available to me and after experiencing many of my own traumatic events including surviving a violent hijacking, kidnapping and attempted rape at gunpoint, I knew I didn't want to be a traumatized mother to my own children. I had the opportunity to change direction from corporate sales and management to psychotherapy, RTThypnotherapy and life coaching.

This episode is for you, if you're an entrepreneur or business owner. Especially, if you've been managing building your dream and business with (or without) a team and have been struggling emotionally, mentally and physically with 'making that dream happen'. Entrepreneurship is not easy and it has a very dark side to it, that, when left unattended, will cause depression, anxiety and negative behaviours. Entrepreneurs are helping us achieve the Global goals Decent Work and Economic Growth as well as Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure. However, what doesn't get seen or spoken about is the dark side of entrepreneurship which affects our mental health – which is part of the Global Goal of Good Health and Well Being. This episode aims to have the conversation around the dark side of entrepreneurship and that it IS real and needs to be conversed on. Should you or anyone you know of need guidance on anxiety, depression or negative behaviours in their entrepreneurship journey, please get in contact with us so that we can refer you to information and guidance to assist you towards Good Health and Well Being.

This episode is for you, if you're someone who has a passion for interviewing others, or who is into journalism and the likes and wants more insight on how to connect with their audience being interviewed.

And by doing so, enforcing the Global Goal of Good Health and Well Being for all those involved through empathic journalism. Today we speak on this episode about: You might think you know it all, but you don't. Connect to your soul and heart. Be a compassionate listener. It's important to make your interviewee feel safe. Judgement will come up in your thoughts, investigate it first, within yourself. Give people confidence and thereby create space to talk honestly and openly about the things that we usually keep silent for fear of judgement.
