Take Flight Podcast

From the title of this episode, you may be thinking what does football got to do with leadership? Whether a football fan or not, many of us would have tuned into the EURO 2020 tournament at some stage, but did you see what I saw on and off the pitch?!In this short episode I want to point out some great examples of leadership from two individuals in particular; Simon Kjaer, the Danish captain who really demonstrated what a great leader is in the time of an emergency when Christian Erikksen collapsed on the pitch. Also, Gareth Southgate, the England manager, the way he manged a number of challenges before and throughout the tournament, not to mention the way he embraced and comforted Bukayo Saka after his unfortunate penalty miss, which Gareth could resonate deeply with - he missed his penalty in the EURO 96 semi-final.Take the lead, take flight!Aʟʟ ᴠɪᴇᴡs ᴀʀᴇ ᴏᴜʀ ᴏᴡɴIf you have any feedback or topics you'd like us to discuss, please email us at takeflightpodcast@gmail.comInstagram @takeflightpodcast Hosted on A
