This special-edition episode is an audio replay of our virtual workshop "Leading From the Front: The Power of Exceptional Leadership" with Col. David Richmond, CBE that took place on 23 July 2024. 

We rarely release our workshop recordings - in fact, this is the first time we've released a recording in its entirety - but this one is too valuable not to. It needs to be shared.

Jonny de Mallet Morgan, David, and our workshop guests explore:

1. A leaders' responsibility to nurture cultures where people feel safe, empowered and connected to a shared purpose
2. The fundamental importance of simply being human, showing up and caring for your team authentically
3. How leaders should be "actively making themselves redundant" by "delegating until it hurts" - moving decisions closer to where the real information lies
4. The importance of freeing up space to guide, support and provide clarity of direction, rather than getting stuck in the weeds of day to day operations - "spending more time in the crow's nest"
5. Inspirational non-corporate perspective from David's extensive military experience

About Col. David Richmond CBE:

David was the most senior officer to be seriously wounded in the Afghanistan conflict.

Since then, he's taken Help for Heroes from a portacabin to a household name. He's set up the Office of Veteran Affairs for the UK Government. He's worked with a number of charities and sporting bodies, including Boccia UK and the UK Invictus Games. He's now CEO at the Royal Hospital Chelsea - home to the Chelsea Pensioners - and also (we're very proud to say), one of our brilliant Executive Coaches at FROM:TODAY.

We promise you'll find this packed full of value.

Enjoy.
