During the Second World War, Flt Lt Richard Stevens led an extraordinary campaign as an RAF nightfighter. Known to contemporaries as "Cat's Eyes" and by the height of his success in July 1941 as the "Lone Wolf", Flt Lt Stevens was the RAF's highest scoring nightfighter pilot with 14 victories. What makes his story unique is that all this was achieved without the aid of radar or another crew member. Instead, Flt Lt Stevens used extraordinary skill, instinct, and innate marksmanship.

You don't find the best leaders by looking up. You find them by looking ahead. They're laying out a vision, leading by example, engineering culture, and creating success for people. They're leading us forward to a better future. The Lead Forward podcast is about the mindsets, tools, and skills that leaders need to be both healthy AND effective, because we're going to need to be both if we want to keep making things better. Join us weekly to be part of the journey.
