The Value Agenda
When a business is under pressure, everything feels urgent. But not everything is important. Welcome to The Value Agenda, the podcast about cutting through the noise and focusing on what truly matters.
Hosted by Kingsgate’s Oliver Colling and Steve Swayne, this series is for leaders who need to make critical decisions. In each episode, we interview experts who have a rare ability to look at a complex organisation and identify where the real value lies. We don’t just talk about theory; we share the practical strategies and decisive leadership required to build resilient, high-performing businesses.
If you are a business leader, an investor, or a professional on the front lines, join us as we uncover the secrets to prioritising what’s important and building lasting value. This podcast is for you.
