Rocket Powered Leadership

Part two of our conversation with Alexander Knapp sees us consider how arrogance can lead to downfall, too much analysis can lead to paralysis, and how an imposter in the workplace can foster success.

Complexity is seductive, addictive and destructive. Is the world becoming more complex, or are we becoming more aware of the world's complexity? Alexander Knapp of AKC Global joins me to explore the best approaches to tackle the phenomenon

A range of Managers can find themselves in a technical or specialist role, senior in an organisation, with few direct reports. Are these Managers, Leaders or not? Caroline Simms of the Park Plaza Hotel joins me, as we examine the potential to lead by influence.

In the first episode of Rocket Powered Leadership we explain the rationale behind Rocket Powered Leadership and the journey we will take you on in future programmes. We also consider what makes a Leader, and the importance of learning as a Leader.
