Mel Rea ,

Insightful reflections from CEOs

I look forward to this pod each week - Sally’s warm and engaging interview style is ‘easy on the ear’ and her Boss’ responses are always reflective and insightful. Their tips for current reading or listening are great. Many of us don’t get the opportunity to hear from such leaders - so thanks! I always end the pod with a smile on my face!
