E35 - Guests: Bishop Graham James, Former Bishop of Norwich

I'd love to hear from you; feel free to send me a Text MessageThis episode is being published on Easter Sunday 2024 so an interview with a senior figure in the Church of England seemed highly appropriate, and I am delighted that my guest for this episode is Bishop Graham James, the former Bishop of Norwich.Bishop Graham and I first met back in 2001 when I had the privilege of flying him in a Jaguar from RAF Coltishall, where I was the Officer Commanding Number 6 Squadron at the time.  He is a really lovely and very inspirational man who has had a fascinating life journey and I am sure you will find his story extremely interesting.  Not only does he describe his own journey as a leader with great candour, but he also offers some terrific insights on a wide range of issues along the way.  Enjoy! In this interview we cover the following topics (starting time in brackets):Bishop Graham's career journey (00.03.04)Early motivations (00.13.01)Advice to a school aged Graham (00.18.05)Changes to leadership style (00.24.54)The Church & politics (00.37.45)Leadership traits and values (00.41.01)Role models (00.47.10)Highs & lows (00.50.35)Work : life balance (01.02.58)Challenges for the Church of England (01.07.37)Most memorable event (01.15.15)Most difficult question (01.17.41)An Easter message!
