#16 Bob Eggington - on the news media

Bob Eggington, veteran of media, ‘new’, ‘old’ and international, speaks to host Pete Burden about his career in news organisations large and small. About his management practice, honed over 57 years of working. And the importance of context, of kindness, and of ‘ends’ for achieving a healthy transfer of power.

Bob reveals his approach to leadership and management, and communication, and how saying important things honestly and with candour can be beneficial in surprising ways, even though this may not be obvious until many years later. How we all plant seeds for learning – and affect each other. And the relationship between economics and politics and the media, particularly in developing, post-conflict or transitioning countries.
