Navigating Difficult Conversations with Empathy and Clarity

You wouldn’t like him when he’s angry… This week Sam’s guest is one of Britain’s greatest ever Olympians, Sir Ben Ainslie.

Ben reflects on his incredible sailing career and the learnings he has taken into his current role as CEO, Team Principal and Skipper of Ineos Britannia.

There are some fascinating insights about Ben’s transition from the high seas to the boardroom and the struggles that come with that; particularly having an awareness of how your reactions can affect the entire team.
