Our latest interview – The Paranoia of Average: – is with Mitch Kaye, Co-founder & CEO, The Academy.
A total honour to catch up with Mitch this month. Loved hearing what makes him tick, how he approaches leadership and what lessons he has learned over his time at the help of his award winning agency.
We asked:
- What has lockdown done for you, the PR sector and UK PLC?
2. What have you learned about yourself as a leader since you launched The Academy, and then more specifically over the last 12 months during the pandemic? - Tell me about your paranoia?! And how do you stave off becoming average?
4. How do you see the world now and as we emerge into new normal? - What will you do differently from a leadership POV, if at all, in the next five years?
- Who or what inspires you and what is the bit of advice you would give your 18-year-old self?
