Leading 4 Life "Stories"
I am Bob Judson and I spent over 34 years in the Royal Air Force of the United Kingdom as a fast-jet pilot and then eventually as a senior leader, retiring from the military in 2015 as an Air Vice-Marshal (2* General). I subsequently transitioned to the corporate world as a consultant at Deloitte, but in 2019 I stepped away from all that and co-founded Leading 4 Life.
I am passionate about helping to develop the leadership skills of individuals and teams and that is what this podcast is all about. You will hear from me, and from a wide range of special guests, many of whom have had incredible leadership journeys and risen to the most senior level of their governments, militaries and corporations. The focus won't only be on success; there is also much to be learned from the failures along the way!
Thank you for listening!

There are a range of recent occurrences that led me to think that "Accountability & Ownership" would be a good topic for a thematic episode of the show this week. Far too often (in my view at least) individuals or organisations lose sight of the importance of owning the results of your actions and being accountable for them. We live in a world where all too frequently, people look around for someone else to "blame" and do everything to avoid taking responsibility themselves.
In this very short episode, I encourage you to take a look in the mirror at your own approach to this issue. How good are you at holding yourself accountable for your actions and decisions? If you are a leader, do you take ownership or the results of your team even when they are not what you wanted them to be? Have a think about it and, if necessary, consider how you might change your approach to this vitally important issue.
I really hope this stimulates your thinking and that you enjoy the episode; please let me have your feedback and I'll be back with more content very soon.
