- the “we’ve got data, let’s do something with it” problem
- His bent towards “exposure” on the Exposure – Education – Experience idea (70/20/10) and his method for researching through people (what he calls “self-researchers”
- his preferences for recruiting and a growing feeling that “If I had to start from scratch I wouldn’t start with analysts”

- the need to keep sight of the end stage which is a decision
- why scoping well is a time saver
- the difficulty of beautiful dashboards
- how he structures his day (newsflash: being at work early isn’t compulsory)
- how he keeps up to date on what his teams are up to, how he builds team and learns at the same time
- which meeting is the most attended meeting for his team each week?
- his realisation about how hard he may have been to manage in his early career
- why you can’t learn everything from a book
- his favourite charity is the Heart Foundation
