How To Be A Great Leader With Andrew Bridge, Managing Partner of Fisher German

Episode notes

Andrew Bridge, Managing Partner of Fisher German (FG) really embodies what it means to be a great, modern leader. FG employs over 600 employees and is 60-person partnership. This is no mean feat when it comes to creating alignment, because it’s like having 60 business owners! Andrew is purpose driven. He recognises how his organisation can make a difference to the survival of the human race through their services. He genuinely thinks highly of his team (he says they are amazing) and very much achieves results through them. What’s evident about Andrew’s success is his mindset. Always seeing the opportunity in challenges but also continually growing and helping his team to be the best they can be. We talk about the things that contribute towards both his and FG’s success: How a big part of leadership involves talking to people and listening. How taking time to think and reflect enables him to be focused on what he’s going to achieve each day. How, since lockdown he is more conscious of what a good day or meeting looks like and the outcomes which are necessary.
