In this episode, we interview Scott La Franchie. Scott is a proud Husband and father of two young daughters, aged 4 and 6, and a senior leader and marketing strategist with nearly two decades of experience launching innovative products across IT, telecommunications, and security sectors in New Zealand. He is currently taking a break after finishing up at First Security and will be focusing on family and home activities full time, with his wife -Rebekah (a marketing lead at Datacom) continuing to work full time - when he has some free time (ha) he will be planning his next big adventure career wise. Known for his hands-on approach to product development and go-to-market strategies, Scott has led award-winning initiatives, including his work as Head of Security Products at Kordia and General Manager of Marketing and Products at First Security, where he introduced cutting-edge digital security solutions. An active community member, he’s also deeply involved with Oratia FC, his local football club, where he serves as a coach, player and board member, blending his love of the game with a commitment to giving back.
Our conversation together was full of great observations:
- How time takes on a different meaning as a Dad as well as how you define your priorities.
- The value of time boxing to protect your needs and your partner’s needs.
- Looking after your energy so you can look after your family.
- How trying things and adapting has worked well in his family when it comes to logistics of family life. And the constant of keeping communication up.
- Feeling safe to ask for flexibility at work and feeling like your manager has empathy for you.
- Scott’s observations of their family set-up that Executive team members have and what that might mean for his career in a dual-career couple.
- The power of watching senior leaders actively model family friendly behaviours.
