In this episode of EG Property Podcast EG editor Samantha McClary talks with Chris Grigg, the former chief executive of British Land, about his 12 years running one of the country's oldest property company.
Over the 40 minute conversation Chris and Sam chat about everything from modernising British Land, how to lead on diversity when you are a white middle class man, what it's like running a public business for so long, the highs the lows, what advice Chris would give anyone looking to be a future leader... And why knowing what people are thinking and being able to predict the future would be the greatest superpower any CEO could possess.
The interview was recorded as part of a Movers & Shakers event and can be watched here if you'd prefer a visual treat or you can read the interview in EG on online at www.egi.co.uk/news
