These are just some of the topics that I cover in this episode of Leading People.
My guest is Rob Kuijpers.
Rob rose to senior positions within Heinz before first becoming CEO of EMEA for DHL and eventually CEO of DHL Worldwide Express, at the time the most global company in the world.
When the Belgian national airline, Sabena, went bankrupt in 2001, in the aftermath of 9/11, Rob helped set up and became CEO of what is now Brussels Airlines.
Today, Rob is 86 and still active in business. And, he regularly takes part in international tennis competitions for the over 80s!
It's often said that wisdom comes with age. During what turned out to be a fascinating conversation we follow Rob's career path with stories and anecdotes, lessons learned about how to deal with mistakes and failures, and probably more importantly, how to get others to perform at their best.
And, Rob has some great advice for us all on how to have fulfilling careers.
There are so many other valuable nuggets in this conversation that I'll leave it to you to decide what your favourite ones are.
And, remember to follow us on our social media channels and share the podcast with colleagues and friends.
