Leadership Roadmap

Episode #4: Leading Through Change: Adaptability, Ai & Culture

Jon Humphries Season 1 Episode 4

🎙️ The Leadership Roadmap Podcast with Phil Douglas

Phil takes us through his journey from Flash animator to Director of Technology at MadPaws, sharing invaluable insights on:

- The transition from technical roles to leadership positions
- How he applies Amazon's famous "two pizza team" rule for managing remote teams
- Navigating complex digital transformations across multiple acquired businesses
- The leadership skills that matter most in today's tech landscape

My favourite takeaway? Phil's perspective on problem-solving: "Engineers like solving problems. If you give them a set of solved problems to code out, you won't get their buy-in. But if you give them problems to solve themselves, you'll really engage them."

Whether you're an aspiring tech leader or currently managing teams, there's something valuable for you in this conversation.
