ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Today’s guest is, Senior Civil Servant, Mark Burden.

In our conversation Mark offers valuable insights into:
  • How presenteeism is not about visibility 
  • The importance of seeking feedback
  • Disability and the art of the possible
  • And how everyone is integral to achieving the “thing”

Mark’s Three Key Encouragements to Leaders and Listeners:
  1. Be comfortable in not knowing the answer but having the knowledge to connect people
  2. Mistakes are great - learn from them rather than fearing them. It is an opportunity to move from fear to opportunity
  3. Tell the story, explain the why and if possible the who and the when! The what bit is then quite easy!
