Description

In this episode, Retired Army Colonel Joseph Walden talks to us about 'motivational dysfunction' and the kind of leader it takes to eradicate it within your teams. When the traditionally separated realms of professional and personal life are increasingly blurring into one, Joseph argues it's a leader's responsibility to identify and help teams work through this. Drawing on his 26-year supply chain management experience in the US Army, Joseph shares the three unteachable qualities the best leaders embody and some practical tips on navigating leadership in the new normal.

Just over 20 years ago I arrived in the UK with less than £1,000 to my name. I knew that the only way to succeed was to never settle for “good enough.” Through a mixture of hard work, humility and quite frankly dogged determination I managed to transform my life. Fast forward to the present day and I’m now the Co-Founder and CEO of The Future Insights Network, a fast-growing network of over 130,000 manufacturing, supply chain, and digital transformation leaders. Yes, my life is intense, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. On this podcast I will be sitting down with globally renowned thought leaders from the world of supply chain, manufacturing and business to bring you refreshingly down-to-earth conversations with the people responsible for transforming our everyday lives. If I have learnt anything from my 25 years working in senior leadership positions is that whilst change is almost inevitable, true transformation is very much a conscious choice. My question for you therefore is, are you ready to be transformed? I’m Maria Villablanca and this is Transform Talks.
