“A great leader gives you a sense of hope, a sense of purpose, a sense of inspiration. It’s because there’s a connection to their values, their ethical framework and they treat you as a person.”  Graham Winter talks about what a great leader is on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast.

“That’s what leadership’s about. Mobilising people to do some things that they wouldn’t ordinarily have done, and let’s do something purposeful while we’re doing it “ Graham Winter shares what leadership is about on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast.

“If you’re the leader, you’ve got to get up on the balcony. Sometimes, if it’s in negotiation, it’s getting up and looking at war within it.” Graham Winter talks about perspective on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast.
