The Red Threads of Effective Leadership

About this Podcast: The Red Threads of Effective Leadership with Mark Beazley, Chief Executive at The Kennel Club

To a nation of dog lovers, The Kennel Club is a familiar name.  They are proud to be the UK’s largest organization devoted to dog health, welfare and training, and host of Crufts, the world’s greatest dog show and celebration of man’s best friend.

So naturally, we were thrilled when Mark Beazley, Chief Executive of The Kennel Club, joined us to talk about his work and explore some of the red threads that have run through his development as a leader.

His style is one of openness and complete candour, so listen now to hear what it is to be an authentic leader, how to make more effective decisions using data, and the importance of making mistakes.

"Without that data, you're fumbling around in the dark."
