Andy is a teacher first and foremost but that is how he can write the book Compassionate Teacher with such authority. Andy gives us insight into the education world but his examples and stories are relevant to any leader in any sector. We can so often look at industries as silos but in fact we have so much to learn from each one when it comes to leadership.

PJ Ellis, well what can I say. Probably the most unique episode of season 1. Mainly because his story is a unique one but also because he in the end turned the tables on me. From Lawyer, to one of the first Big Brother contestants to now business owner and fundraiser with the Love Brum concept. The takeaway message for me was that every great idea comes from a few too many drinks with your mates.
