Seasoned former banker Richard Boath talks to us about his longest day preventing a UK government bailout at Barclays Bank in 2008. He explains how he navigated immense pressure and engaged the stakeholders around him, noting that a crisis brings out the best or worst in people. But Richard also talks of accusations levelled against him by the Serious Fraud Office and his subsequent acquittal at the Old Bailey as one of the Barclays Four.

His accounts of confronting injustice and thoughtful reflections on crisis leadership pose great questions for leaders facing the unthinkable.Don’t forget to subscribe, rate, and share this episode by following The Longest Day Podcast here: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/thelongestdaypodcast/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/15QDqkhjZw/?mibextid=wwXIfr YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheLongestDayPodcast-z1x X: @longestdaypod TikTok: @thelongestdaypodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thelongestdaypodcast Website: www.thelongestdaypodcast.com All previous episodes: https://pod.link/1684217939
