His discussion with Kim covers topics including practical leadership, dealing with volatility, creating trust and assigning responsibility.\n\rHamish and Kim also cover difficult issues such as dealing with downsizing, management vs leadership, taking on risk and extending beyond the comfort zone. Hamish also talks about the importance of life/work balance and recognising the cues that identify when you are losing the balance.\n\rWe wrap up the episode with effective decision making, re-energising a career and what's next for Hamish.\n\r------------------------------\nThe Food & Drink Business Podcast is produced by Southern Skies Media on behalf of Food & Drink Business, owned and published by Yaffa Media.\n\rThis episode is brought to you by Planet Protector Packaging (http://www.planetprotectorpackaging.com/).\n\rThe views of the people featured on this podcast do not necessarily represent the views of Food & Drink Business, Yaffa Media, or the guest's employer.
