KEY TAKEAWAYS
BEST MOMENTS
"Great leadership comes from a position of care and that comes from a couple of profound incidents that happened, and it's in the TED Talk as well that happened in my career that held a mirror up."
"If you communicate effectively how the organisation is going to grow and develop and you communicate that intent, which is what I call it. Lots of people call it their why, their vision, their mission, their purpose. I call it intent."
"If you're going to set goals in order to succeed, plan for failure. So too many people are too optimistic. You've got to understand where, how, and if it's going to go wrong."
"When I left the army as Colonel Poole. I spent a long time working out who I was now, and it was my choice to take the uniform off, but it was hard, it was really hard, handing that uniform in."
"We talk about big, hairy, audacious goals and, you know, Colonel in the Armed Forces, Big Hairy Audacious Goal. An app out into the world, Big Hairy Audacious Goal. Number one bestseller, Big Hairy Audacious Goal. What's next?"
