In this episode of my podcasts on Leading business Change, my guest Daksh Gupta - the automotive authority who leads Marshall Motor Group - talks about his Leadership Principles.

There is a lot of talk about the theory of leadership principles and you can read dozens of articles by experts purporting to know what these principles should be. In this podcast on leading business change, Daksh will share how he lives leadership principles in a very practical way. If you want to hear insightful, informative and practical leadership principles, this is the podcast for you. 

From a business perspective, Daksh talks about Marshall Motor Group's phenomenal financial figures this year, and how this performance relates to the wider market. He explains how they have looked after their staff, backdated pay and repaid government furlough loans, and still posted incredible profit numbers.

Importantly Daksh shares insights into his personal motivational drives, deep seated beliefs and leadership principles. These principles help him navigate the day to day business and enable him to manage relationships with investors and stakeholders. Can you imagine telling investors you believe its more important to repay loans and back date staff pay before thinking about any directors bonuses or shareholder payments? 

Daksh has some very strong views on behaving and leading in a way that creates a culture where staff feel respected, valued and can be at their best. He talks openly about keeping staff safe in Covid crisis and indeed he made the decision to close showrooms before the government announcement in March 2020.

Finally, we talk EV electric vehicles, and my guests shares his views on leading the change to drive EVs and why he now drives an electric vehicle. Can you guess what car he drives?
