In this episode , Scott Brown, UK Director of Sales for Melia Hotels International, delves into the profound lessons he’s learned from exceptional leaders and mentors throughout his career. He emphasizes the critical role of continuous learning and development for leaders and recounts how he transformed a ‘failure’ into a career-launching opportunity.
Scott also discusses the transformative power of establishing and communicating clear non-negotiables to your team, sharing his own non-negotiables that you might find compelling enough to adopt.
As we wrap up, Scott shares a heartfelt tribute to his first director of sales, Nikki Staley, who taught him the importance of empathy and the human touch in leadership, and whose caring and non-transactional approach to sales has profoundly shaped Scott's leadership style.
