Now celebrating his 20th year at YMU, Group CEO Neil Rodford has demonstrated an incredible work ethic to make the most of the opportunities offered to him.
On episode 10 of Extrology, Neil explains how working harder than everyone else in the room formed the basis for his chemistry with Kevin Keegan, the transferable skills learned from football that he applied to talent management, and learning to take a step backwards to make the right kind of progress.
