E16 - Guests: Howard Wheeldon, Commentator, Broadcaster and Analyst

Leading 4 Life "Stories"

I'd love to hear from you; feel free to send me a Text Message

My guest this week is Howard Wheeldon, who is best known as a political / defence commentator and analyst in recent years, but who had a fascinating and long career prior to moving into that realm. It was a really interesting and wide ranging discussion, which highlights Howards extremely impressive breadth and depth of business experience; I very much hope you enjoy it.
As you will hear from the introduction to this edition this is a particularly poignant episode for me because, at the time that I recorded the interview, I was aware that Howard was seriously ill.
Tragically he passed away on 21 September, much more suddenly than expected and, having consulted his widow Joanna, this interview is being released the day prior to Howard's memorial service in London on Monday 20 November, and will hopefully serve as an ongoing tribute to a great man and a good friend who will be much missed.
My heartfelt condolences remain with Joanna as well as Howard's children, Ellie and Giles.
In the interview we cover the following subjects (starting time in brackets):

• Howard's career journey (00.03.48)
• Early motivations (00.17.41)
• Leadership styles and priorities (00.22.33)
• Role models & modern day business challenges (00.31.57)
• What would Howard have done differently? (00.53.00)
• Career high point (01.02.15)
• Career low point (01.08.08)
• Managing work:life balance (01.11.41)
• Views on defence expenditure and relationships with key allies (01.18.11)
• Most difficult question! (01.28.33)
