Listen Later

In this conversation I talk with Tim Archer. Tim is a former Group Captain, he held a number of senior appointments in the RAF during which time he gained an MA in Leadership Studies from the Centre for Leadership Studies at Exeter University, a Post Grad Certificate in Executive Coaching from Lancaster University Business School and was awarded a full-time 12-month Fellowship back at the Centre for Leadership Studies.

After a spell as Director Public Sector at the Leadership Trust in the UK, he moved to the United Arab Emirates for 8 years where he was a government advisor during which time he developed, designed and taught experiential leadership development and coaching programmes. He currently works for Cardiff University developing their leadership modules for the MSc in Public Health. 

We have a wide ranging conversation that touches on:

  • The definition of leadership
  • Mission command - military doctrine (what to do, not how to do it - no disseminated responsibility)  myth of military leadership  - Constructive decent Vs destructive concept
  • The OODA loop (Observe, Orient, Decide, Act)
  • Leadership Vs Management (Kotter)
  • Trust and cohesion – Peak rapport
  • Homeostatic leadership
  • Compassionate Leadership
  • Situational leadership
  • Leadership in conflict
  • Leader as a coach 
  • Systems leadership - NHS Model - leading when not in charge
  • I hope you enjoy this episode with a fascinating guest and friend.
