This week’s guest is the awesome Alex Barker. Alex is co-author of the brilliant book, How to: Be More Pirate and a keynote speaker and coach at the 'Be More Pirate' consultancy - an organisation that works with businesses to help them reclaim their power, purpose and potential. We discuss with Alex:

· What to do if you are a free thinker, a pirate, within an organisation that doesn’t share or understand those characteristics

· The cultural norms and structures needed to define a business in order to set the foundations for pirates to flourish within an organisation

· How business leaders tap into the reserve of creative thinking they developed over the course of the pandemic to build the foundations for a culture of radical thinking

· Why some leaders might fear a pirate approach in business

· Whether self-awareness is the biggest inhibitor to adoption of more pirate thinking

· If pirate thinking within teams could also lead to silo thinking
