Description

Welcome to the We Are Human Leaders podcast. Today we’re taking a deep dive into what being a human centred leader looks like in action.

Today’s guest is the CEO of a Global Company, one that you all know. Rather than give you the name of the company, I’ll give you a riddle.

What’s blue and yellow and lives in your garage?
It tackles rust and grease, without a qualm.
Transforming squeaks and squeals
Into houses of calm
It comes in a compact can
That fits right in your palm.
Can you guess?

Today’s guest is none other than CEO of Global Company WD40, Mr Garry Ridge. Garry is nothing short of an incredible Leader having lead WD40 since 1997 and transforming the companies revenue into a multi-billion dollar publicly listed company whilst keeping human beings at the central core of the companies priorities.

This conversation was nothing short of awe-inspiring as Garry left both Sally and myself with a multitude of learning moments.

We’re so excited to share this conversation with you, let’s dive in!

Welcome to We Are Human Leaders - big conversations around human-centred leadership at work and beyond. This is a story about you, as a Human, and a Leader. It doesn’t matter your industry, your geography, the products you sell or the services that you offer. It doesn’t matter if you’re in a corporation, or a small business, it doesn’t matter your profit margins or your official job title. Our common denominator is the same, we are humans first and leaders second. This is a call to everyone who prioritizes learning and growth to truly put Humans first in business. Human Leaders is a movement of leaders changing how we work to ensure business and humans can thrive through work. Human Leaders create workplaces where every single person feels seen, their contributions valued and their voice heard. We’re mobilizing the global leadership community to reimagine what work looks like and we’re glad you’re on this journey with us.
