Is UK management just not good enough? Ever wondered why UK companies are still struggling to recover from the 2008 financial crisis, while their international counterparts seem to have moved on? Curious about why no UK company features among the world's top 25?
Join us on Bob and Jeremy's Conflab to explore these realities and delve into the heart of the UK's management crisis. We dissect the factors behind this problem, from the lack of tech giants and innovators, to a surprising satisfaction with mediocre financial success among the UK's entrepreneurs.
Imagine a scenario where 80% of senior positions are occupied by 'accidental managers'. Sounds like a recipe for disaster, doesn't it?

Well, that's precisely what's happening in the UK, according to a recent survey by the Chartered Management Institute and YouGov. These managers, unprepared for their roles, demonstrate poor leadership and are responsible for poor morale and plummeting productivity. The lack of appropriate investment in training managers and the resulting impact on employee performance and loyalty is another alarming trend we discuss.

What are the solutions? We discuss the role of 'accidental sales managers' and the harmful impact of short-term strategies. We highlight the importance of every customer interaction and the potential benefits of investing in quality managers with the appropriate skill set. Wrapping up this enlightening episode, we share a quote from the visionary Steve Jobs, encapsulating the essence of customer experience.
This conversation promises to be both eye-opening and thought-provoking, so make sure to tune in!
