Ep12: Controlling the air traffic. Poynton AO, Co-Founder & Chair of Poynton Stavrianou

Strap-in listeners for this broad-ranging conversation with one of Australia’s best-known businessmen and company directors. John shares his views on leadership, culture development, the state of Australia’s energy policy, the madness of international politics, Elon Musk and the threat of humanoid robots. Along the way, he delves into the art of managing boardroom dynamics, he discusses the importance of managing stakeholder expectations, and he reveals how to strengthen your character through failure. Oh, and by the way, next time you hear the whir of a helicopter, look up and give a wave - it might be John going for a joy ride.David BeilbyAlana Bray-WhiteJohn PoyntonDisclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in 'Hearts & Mines' are those of the podcast participants and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of Ivy & Gecko or any other agency, organisation, employer, or company associated with the podcast.
