'An English Man in Shanghai' - what can we learn about leadership across cultures?

In this pair of podcasts, we welcome Paul Ryder, a Learning & Resourcing Professional with 30+ years of experience split between consultancy and the financial services sector, garnered in the West and in the East (Hong Kong and China)

In recent times, Paul was a Group Managing Director of the Bank of China Learning Institute in Shanghai where he provided strategic development guidance at the highest levels of the organisation.

In this part of the discussion with Paul, we are exploring the subject of leadership and analysing it in depth through the lens of different jurisdictions, cultures, types of organisations, and workforces.

Through the lens of Pauls unique vantage point, we delve into the approaches to leadership in China and the West, exploring significant differences in leadership philosophies, values, and practices between the two regions. It is an incredibly thoughtful exploration which is gently provocative in equal measure.

Listen, learn and enjoy this insightful discussion.
