How do you take all the utopian ideas you read about in books and apply them to the reality of the organisations we work in?

This week I'm joined by leader, mentor, and coach Rob Roe to tackle this question. We discuss...

🌪️ The pitfalls of functional silos
🤫 Is the annual budget a load of rubbish?
🍃 How our management promotion systems are often broken
🫂 The power of virtual teams
📗 Team interaction models

...and much more.
