Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Kevin Crawford: Designing Success
Q: How do you grow your network now, and how is that different from before?
Networking now is about building meaningful relationships with like-minded people who want to enjoy life and work with purpose. It happens anywhere—on planes, in saunas, or poolside—and it's about collaboration, not just direct sales.
Kevin Crawford: Designing Success
Q: What prompted the transition to Designing Success and an employee-owned model at Crawford Architecture?
The move was motivated by recognizing the need for a sustainable, healthy, and flexible structure for the next generation. It allowed us to give staff ownership, reduce burnout, and empower everyone to contribute ideas, which ultimately informed the design of Systems, health routines, and the app.
Kevin Crawford: Designing Success
Q: Tell me about the moment you took over the family firm and how that shaped your approach.
It happened gradually as my dad stepped back; I shifted to management, set visions and plans, and focused on succession while keeping the team engaged and motivated. It taught me the importance of structure, culture, and planning for the long term.
Investment banking for girls
Q: What drew you to finance and what gave you the confidence to pursue a career in a male-dominated field?
Jordan explains that early exposure to finance through family, an interest in numbers and Excel, and a pivotal moment deciding to go all in helped her commit to investment banking and later build a leadership role in the UK.
Jenny Green: Keep your pitch short and sweet!
Q: What is your approach to networking and sharing tips for newcomers?
Try a variety of formats to see what fits, keep pitches brief and on-point, and engage in breakout-room style conversations for real dialogue rather than short, generic pitches.
