Joining Christopher Pietroni for our fifth episode of the ‘Leadership Exchanged’ podcast is Andy Street, the West Midlands Metro Mayor.  Before being elected as the Conservative Mayor of the West Midlands in 2017, Andy had an extremely successful career at John Lewis, starting as a graduate and ending at the top of the shop as Managing Director. Andy now applies his previous experience in leadership, training and learning from role models to his service to the three million citizens of the West Midlands. In this episode, Andy delves into his personal experiences and learnings, his value set including inclusivity, modesty and honesty and how this now shapes his role as a representative ‘leader for people’. The Leadership Exchanged podcast asks if the world's biggest and most complex problems could be solved if the right leadership approach was applied? Do we need to exchange current approaches to leadership for something new? In each episode, Leadership expert Professor Christopher Pietroni discusses with guests what kind of leadership is needed if you want to make real, lasting change.  Find out more about the Leadership Exchanged podcast: birmingham.ac.uk/leadership-exchanged Follow Andy on Twitter   Follow Christopher on Twitter Resources mentioned in the interview:  John Lewis  Birmingham Youth  West Midlands Leadership Commission  WMCA  Net Zero Strategy  COP26
