Ever wondered if you were born to be a leader? The one that steps up when the party is dying a death and the team morale is on the floor? The one that somehow just knows what needs to be said and what needs to be done? If that's you - perhaps you're considering the next stage in your career - the chance to step up. But you're not sure where to start! Well cue this podcast - the leadership quest - a place where we share and unveil some of the thinking from the very best leaders out there. Including a few who say this is a mythical unicorn that we aspire to and its all nonsense!

    John Walsh

    The final Leadership Quest Podcast (for now) is with the fantastic John Walsh.  I met John a number of years ago and put simply he is one of the kindest most inspiring people I know.  He tells his story of his leadership journey - hope you enhjoy it as much as I did.

    Matt Edgar

    Hear Matt talk about his journey to the NHS, how he describes himself in the context of change and leadership and some of the things he learnt as a member and graduate of the Nye Bevan Programm.  This is a very reflective episode - a story of a journey and a realisation of what leadership means.

    MICK WARD

    Hear from Mick Ward, who recently retired from Leeds City Council as the Chief Officer for Innovation in Adults and Health.  But its not Mick's grand title that I found so inspiring; more his determination and activism that runs thorough his career.  I found his journey from carer through to his final role inspiring.  He certainly values driven and he's not afraid to rock the boat.

    ELAINE MAXWELL

    Elaine is an experienced nurse who has a reputation for speaking her mind.  Behind that reputation is a fine mind and a story about her journey.  I loved this conversation.  There is a lot about nursing in it but there is much for everyone, including Elaine's account of returning to practice to work in ICU during the first wave of the COVID19 pandemic.

    TOM RIORDAN

    This conversation was a lovely one, with the warm, authentic human who happens to be the Chief Executive of Leeds City Council.  Its a far ranging discussion about Tom's sense of place, his desire to retain his yorkshire accent and his stellar career.

    STACY JOHNSON

    Stacy is remarkable and this was a completely fascinating chat.  She holds clear views about leadership and thinks being  'Leaderly' is where we all need to be aiming for.  I loved this conversation, recorded right in the heart of LockDown.

    Kirstie Stott

    Recorded before lockdown and in Leeds, this is a great conversation exploring a range of issues about leadership. Kirstie is inspiring and talks about her experience of the GMTS programme as an in-service candidate and the brilliant 'Shadow Board Programme' that she developed and delivers with her team at the Inspiring Leaders Network. I struggled with the sound quality on this one so I hope it doesnt distract from your enjoyment - my apologies to Kirstie and to you, the listener!
