From championing the rebels in the classroom to spotting the hidden gems in a business, this week's podcast guest John Newton shares his journey from Headmaster to CEO and explores some of the most important traits of a successful leader and the importance of curiosity, connection and building high performance culture.

The latest in our series of conversations to help business leaders to accelerate growth through their people is a must listen for anyone who understands the importance of high performing business culture, and would benefit from insights and hands-on guidance on how to achieve it.
