About this episode

Earl Evans shares his unique leadership philosophy that has contributed to his success in building a $50 billion business.

Some leaders grip everything. Others let it all slide. Earl Evans has spent decades building businesses that do neither. Earl is one of the most influential figures in Australian wealth management (CEO of Shaw and Partners) and one of the sharpest operational minds working in Australian business today. He thinks about leadership differently... and in this Bite Size, you'll hear exactly why. What he shares about where to hold the line and where to deliberately let go will change how you think about your own leadership style. And his take on the weakest link? It's not what you expect.
