Chatting health, wellbeing and podcasts with Ceri Theobald

Another week, another run.

Running has allowed me to meet many new people over the years, all with fascinating backstories. It has also given me the chance to catch up on historic relationships.

On Friday I was joined by Ceri Theobald, Group Director of Strategic Partnerships and Growth at Futures Housing Group.

Along with an exciting development and sustainability programme, we discussed health, wellbeing and personal development. Ceri's focus on empowering his team and creating an environment where they feel supported, engaged and valued is commendable.

Fascinating to hear about some of the leadership tools that he's utilised to ensure that the changes implemented are sustainable and at their core, benefit people.

I've known Ceri for about a decade now and clearly those traits have stood him in good stead, allowing for the successful transition between leadership roles in utilities, maintenance and development.

Obviously running, and upcoming training plans got a mention as we took a gentle jaunt through the wooded trail of Shipley Country Park. So to did podcasts (The High Performance Podcast with Jake Humphries a firm favourite) and a mutual interest in focussing on the 'how', not the 'what'.

Stay healthy and happy folks.
