Full disclosure, this episode of is a good’un! Will Buckley is Xero’s ex Head of Australia and Canada who is currently building the learning and development platform, GoodLuca.com.   Will has such an interesting career journey, with plenty more to come. Will began his career in a small boutique firm in Sydney to then moving into commercial roles, before becoming Xero’s country Head in both Canada and Australia. it’s a meteoric rise for someone so young, however when you hear of Will’s resilience, determination and energy, it’s easy to understand why.   We talk through how Will overcame the disappointment of not pursuing a football career, as well as his razor-sharp focus on being a sponge and learning and adding as much value as possible in the first “10 year block” of his career. We talk about a couple of sliding door moments which wouldn’t have happened if he didn’t have that focus and tenacity and how that drive helped to create the opportunities that were put in front of him.   Will talks about what he regrets in his career as well as advice to anyone on that career journey, whether it be on the #pathtopartnership or running a company. We also talk through what his next 10 years looks like and how GoodLuca.com is going to change the learning and development game for accountants.   It was such a good and insightful chat. Thanks Will.
