Today on the podcast we are talking about leadership, trauma, boarding school and how we heal. I am delighted to be talking with Martin Lloyd-Elliott who is one of the UK's leading psychologists and psychotherapists who specialises in working with leaders.

Here he talks about what trauma is. He then goes on to talk about leadership and especially political leadership. What makes a great leader? Does the boarding school system create great leaders or does it create leaders who don't always do the best for those that they lead?

Martin Lloyd-Elliott has worked for thirty one years in full time private practice as a Chartered Psychologist and psychotherapist during which he has worked with over 1500 clients.

He also coaches business executives and management teams in cutting-edge leadership skills, specialising in the creation and development of Super Teams.

Principal teachers and influences are James Hollis, Petrushka Clarkson, Carl Jung, James Hillman, Joseph Campbell, and many others. `

Some of the areas that he speaks about:

1. I would love to hear you speak about how you got into the work that you now do in the world.
2. I would love you to introduce what you understand about trauma. What is trauma? How does it impact us as humans?
3. “To actively choose a career in politics is pathological” James Hollis. Can you talk about this please?
4. I would love for you to talk about leadership and boarding school syndrome. Does boarding school turn out great leaders? Or is there a shadow side to boarding school education which produces wounded leaders? How might this impact the world?
5. I would love for you to speak a bit about the Jewel of the Crown – India and the British Empire. 
6. What makes a benevolent leader? How do we cultivate more of them in our world?
7. How do people learn more about you?
