Juan and Andy were joined by Air Marshal Sir Graham Stacey to learn about how decisions are taken at the very highest levels of the UK military.

Stacey – who joined the RAF in 1980 and has served in numerous theatres of conflict, including Afghanistan, Bosnia, the Gulf, Iraq and Kosovo – accompanies us on a diverse conversation that, in addition to a great overview of military decision-making, takes in ideas such as dealing with ‘catastrophic success’ (when things go unexpectedly well) and ‘red-teaming’ (employing people as in-house devil’s advocates and contrarians).
