Intelligence and Leadership New Zealand Security Matters

Rhys and Martin talk about Intelligence and Leadership in this episode – looking at the four most recent Directors-General of NZSIS, as New Zealand prepares to recruit the next head of the Service. What are the important attributes that a head of an intelligence service needs to have? Is it now the time for an internal candidate to be appointed, or maybe a chief executive from the private sector? Should the status quo remain or maybe it is time to push the boundaries…listen to Martin and Rhys and their take on what a Spy Master should look like today
