Why Focussing on Customers Is More Important Than Money; with Richard Lau & Avon Collis - #17

On this episode of the 6 Star Business podcast, we are joined by two guests who understand the intricacies of using and creating business technology to make life better for the end user: Richard Lau and Avon Collis.

Straight out of the gates Richard brought up the fact that most people are in business for profit only, and have forgotten about the customer.  That set the tone for an incredibly insightful and interesting conversation!


Here’s a snapshot of what we discussed:


10:39 - Do what has to be done and everything else will follow

12:28 - Are all aspects of Amazon 5 or 6 star?

16:39 - When you know the customer is not the right one

18:54 - Why customer service support is a 6 star function 

22:45 - A true company is a living and breathing organism

33:14 - Combining humans with an AI algorithm to create magic

42:27 - How automation can help us be 6 star

About the Podcast

Mission Activated
Conversations and reflections on living your purpose and leading from alignment
Mission Activated is a podcast about living with purpose and leading from alignment.
Hosted by Aveline Clarke, founder of 6 Star Leaders, the show moves between two kinds of episodes: conversations with people doing meaningful work in their own way, and solo reflections drawn from her work coaching conscious leaders through what gets in the way and what's possible on the other side.
This isn't a podcast about hustle, performance, or scale at all costs. It's about the inner work that makes the outer work matter. Self-trust. Clean communication. Owning your part. Becoming someone others can safely navigate by.
If you're tired of leadership content that's loud and shallow, and you're looking for something quieter, more honest, and more useful, this is for you.
New episodes fortnightly. Stay aligned.
