Chris Walker - "The Innerwealth Podcast"

In this podcast episode, Chris Walker discusses the contrasting qualities of leaders that are remembered for their positive impacts and those who led businesses into failure. He highlights the importance of balancing the nurturing, supportive aspects of leadership with the necessity of driving performance and achieving results. Chris critiques the idealised view of leadership promoted by figures like Simon Sinek, arguing that true leadership also involves challenging people and making tough decisions. He emphasises that while soft leadership skills are important, they must be paired with a strong focus on achieving business objectives to ensure success.
