Businesses do not recruit leaders.

They recruit typically high performers in a previous role that might be.

income producing or technical individuals and i loved your point about you know recruit the future leader um i think it's about identifying what are those capabilities and you talk about agility as one of those things but a lot of time people then recruit the people that they want to recruit as well versus actually having a a decent well-built framework that you can recruit off um because i'd imagine in the army they have tendencies to recruit certain type of profiles

The sentence I always like to say when we're working with leadership groups is as a leader, you're a reflection of your team.

If you pull that mirror up, you don't see yourself.

Who do you see?

Exactly.

It's your team.

And even just saying that to me, oh, really, is that drop your ego at the door?

Yeah.

That is the team that you're leading.

I love it.

It's purely custom centric, which is where the industry can go and should go.

And the last sort of question with all this evolving potential change, we've worked together, we've known each other for a number of months as a business and as people, which is lovely.

Where does consulting fit into this?

Because, you know, you've got change on the horizon.

It may or may not be appropriate.

Businesses may be able to do all of this amazing change that we've discussed.

But do you have an opinion on that?

We always say that from these sessions.
