My guest in this episode, Piers Fallowfield-Cooper, was an unlikely city slicker. With keen interest in literature and a qualification in hotel management and hospitality, he got into commodities trading by chance. Once there, he found that he had a considerable knack for it.
From trading, he pivoted to a distinguished career in business leadership.
We talk:
- Foundations of high performance
- Nearly dying as a child
- Authentic leadership: skirmishes vs battles
- Why not to set goals
- Adaptability and adoptability
