Lead Out Loud

Episode 6 | Why all-knowing, all-seeing leaders ALWAYS fail

Season 1 Episode 5

Nowadays, Jon Hendry-Pickup leads a proper British Institution: Butlin's. Before that, he worked for Aldi, Tesco, Travelodge and Prezzo. He's spent decades in high-volume, high-pressure environments. Yet his leadership philosophy might surprise you... 

In this month's podcast, we sat Jon down with Professor Christian Stadler, an academic at Warwick Business School who spends many of his days researching what makes companies ‘survive beyond their 100th birthday'.  

They cover:  

  • Why the All-Knowing, All-Seeing Leader is a COMPLETE MYTH. 
  • The Power in Trusting the LOWEST-PAID, LEAST-QUALIFIED People in any Business. 
  • How Bringing CHATGPT into the Boardroom Actually Works.
