As part of our in-depth change maker podcast series Jane Sparrow speaks to Andy McGoff, Director of Finance and Operations at Edinburgh Napier University.

With a rich bank of knowledge and involvement in all levels of change from start up scale to large scale, he stresses the importance of keeping a golden thread of trust throughout, investing time in your teams and creating an environment where you can be honest with one another (even if it’s not necessarily what they want to hear!). 

Andy and Jane explore lessons learnt from his diverse career and the work they’ve done together.  They discuss the importance of leading with honesty and unpack his top learning from past experiences.
