Leadership didn't come naturally to me | Matthew Addison-Black

Watch or listen to the full episode with Matthew Addison-Black: YouTube:    • Matthew Addison-Black: The Mask of Leaders...   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/550b... Ben asks Matthew about leading men across cultures. Matthew explains why leadership didn't come naturally to him, why the loud style he learned captaining rugby teams didn't work in the army, and how that led him to the Gurkhas. He tells the story of a night in the jungle when he countermanded an order to let his exhausted platoon rest, and why he'd make the same call again. He also talks about learning to trust his own judgement, and about a post-war study that put management skills top in war and in peace. This is a highlight from Curiosity & Command, Ben Newton's long conversations about leadership and pressure.
