Join us for an insightful conversation with Robbie Maiden, a lifeboat coxswain, as he shares his journey from being embedded in a culture from a young age to becoming a leader in the austere lifeboat setting. With no formal leadership training, Robbie has developed his skills through experiential learning and personal growth. Robbie has held the position of coxswain for 27 years but has life boating in his blood.

In today’s episode, we will discuss what skill set you need to lead volunteer crews in the austere environment of the North Sea when the chips are down and how previous experiences have formed and morphed Robbie’s leadership style and skill set over the years. Robbie's storytelling skills shine through as he offers listeners words of wisdom from his experiences, both good and bad.
