Lewis Barnes, Supply Chain Manager, Tekmar Energy. “Young People can be great Leaders”
Wow what an episode this was. Lewis is a 28 year old supply chain manager.
The youngest person I've ever had on the show.
And he was absolutely superb.
An Inspirational leader. someone who has clearly studied management and seen personal development as essential.
I was particularly impressed how he understands the importance of emotional intelligence.
We also went into the depths of procurement and supply chain and the ever changing evolution of manufacturing
Wait until you hear how Lewis signed off the show! Which will definitely inspire every single person listening to it.
Thank you so much, Lewis. You were great to interview!
