Leading 4 Life "Stories"
I am Bob Judson and I spent over 34 years in the Royal Air Force of the United Kingdom as a fast-jet pilot and then eventually as a senior leader, retiring from the military in 2015 as an Air Vice-Marshal (2* General). I subsequently transitioned to the corporate world as a consultant at Deloitte, but in 2019 I stepped away from all that and co-founded Leading 4 Life.
I am passionate about helping to develop the leadership skills of individuals and teams and that is what this podcast is all about. You will hear from me, and from a wide range of special guests, many of whom have had incredible leadership journeys and risen to the most senior level of their governments, militaries and corporations. The focus won't only be on success; there is also much to be learned from the failures along the way!
Thank you for listening!

Leading 4 Life "Stories"
E41 - Themes: Dealing with Adversity!
I'd love to hear from you; feel free to send me a Text Message
Trigger Warning! Whilst it doesn't go into detail, this episodes touches on the death of work colleagues and family members including children.
With this, my first thematic episode in a while, I address the difficult topic of "Dealing with Adversity!"
Whether personal or professional, really challenging situations, especially those involving the injury or death of family members or work colleagues, can be extremely hard to deal with. The problem can be even more acute if you are in a leadership role and have few obvious outlets for support, advice and help.
Through the medium of some of my own experiences (and I've certainly had a few!), I offer some thoughts and advice that will hopefully help to pre-arm the listener with some coping strategies both for self-help and for providing support and help to others around them.
As ever, please let me have your feedback, and please do subscribe and review the podcast on your preferred channel.
