The Inspiring Leadership Podcast
Leadership is everything; whether you’re leading the village hall committee, the largest organisation in the world, or simply leading yourself. Leadership begins with your own self–discipline and your own focus. Leadership brings followers and without followers, you are simply going for a stroll. Leadership provides vision and leaves legacies. To be a leader you need to be the change that you want to be. Leaders change lives and move societies.
In these podcasts, we will learn from the best, the very best. Recipes for success, behaviours to model and practical tips from some of our best business leaders, our most successful coaches and the World’s leading thought leaders.
The Inspiring Leadership Podcast is produced by gunnercooke llp, the professional services firm that has changed the landscape for legal and consultancy services in the 21st century.
