ABOUT MATT ASHFORD

Ten principles that guide me - 1. Having a big idea is the easy bit; leadership is about building the organisation\'s capability to deliver it2. If the team goes a day without laughing, call a crisis meeting3. Some of the most commonly-used metrics are wildly counter-productive 4. Receiving a clear brief is great, but starting with a complete mess is much more fun5. Detail and clarity are not the same thing6. If you want credibility, reveal something about the process that no one else has spotted7. Behaviour eats process for breakfast8. Data is good, insight is better, message is king9. Continuous improvement is fantastic, and innovation is awesome…but confusing the two is a mistake10. It’s not a myth: there really is 50% waste in every process, in every meeting, in every document.If you can add to my experience or if you would like to tap into it, I\'d love to connect with you.
