Leadership.

We're back!!

After an extended pre-season break, we are back with our 76th interview, with the fantastic Phil Denton.

Phil is a Tranmere Rovers fan, and a headteacher in Ormskirk, he is also the co-author of a book titled 'The First 100 Days: Lessons In Leadership From The Football Bosses' written with Tranmere manager Micky Mellon.

Today we talk to Phil about Micky Mellon, leadership, and the work he is doing to improve the understanding of mental health amongst school children. We also ask Phil about his journey into teaching, which involved a sojourn to Saudi Arabia.
