‘We can talk about soils and farming all day but without great leaders we are going nowhere' - Jonty Brunyee.
Jonty talks to John Knights, former Corporate Vice President of a Fortune 100 company in the US and Co-founder of LeaderShape Global.
John explains how leadership is much more than just about telling people what to do - it’s about influencing, persuading and engaging others. John specialises in transpersonal leadership with a focus on feelings, emotions and values which requires self awareness and will ‘make you a better customer and parent as well as employer’.
