Paul is the former CEO of Birmingham international airport and is now a Non-executive director of five different organisations.
Paul has such a breadth and depth of business knowledge, not just limited to the aviation industry. We covered so many topics from running an airport to Brexit and democracy, novel-writing, risk management, business growth, the importance of having a professional team in place who are skilled in what they are doing and having a “childlike acquisition of knowledge”. Paul believes that “Managing uncertainty has got to be the number one thing for business managers today.” He thrives on uncertainty and is such a great advocate of developing the skills to lead through it.
