Show Notes

We're on our podcast summer holiday, but wanted to check in to let you know that we're still here, that we'll be back with Series 3 on Thursday 22nd August, and that you can vote for us in the British Podcast Awards - Listener's Choice category.

As mentioned in the podcast, here's me on my 80s BMX with my 1st place trophy for cycling proficiency.

And here's a clip of the awards ceremony Jono referenced with the inimitable Steve Martin.

If you'd like to get in touch with us about any of our previous episode topics, your own experiences with the subjects we explore, or just to say hi, you can email us: [email protected] Or you can leave us a note or even a voice note on the podcast website.

Oh - and here's Jono's Imposter Syndrome sketch which is the best possible artwork we could chose for this episode - and which I'm sure we'll come back to at some point for a full podcast as it feels like something a lot of people can probably relate to.

Have a great summer and we'll see you in August. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

US Navy submarine captain and author David Marquet discusses leadership lessons from turning the USS Santa Fe from worst to best, focusing on “pushing authority to information” rather than pushing information up a hierarchy. Marquet critiques industrial-age leadership language that seeks obedience and creates “bobblehead” agreement, arguing that real engagement comes from giving people decision-making authority,
