About Steve Radcliffe
Originally from Wigan, in Northern England, I studied at Oxford before being drilled in business at Procter and Gamble. Moving to the US, I became CEO of a division of a multi-national company, before returning to help reorganise the business across Europe.
I then aged 38 packed it all in because I was lucky - I had found what I wanted to do and who I wanted to be. And that is a great partner, guide, coach, challenger, insight-bringer to leaders who are up to something.
The journey has been brilliant. I have met some truly inspiring people - some in board rooms, some in Whitehall and Downing Street, some in charities and schools.
At home in Hampshire, my leadership challenge alongside Sharron is learning to be a great parent to 3 lively teenagers! Tennis, supporting Wigan Athletic and my landscape photography help keep me fit and sane.

Last week Sharron and I had a great break in Jordan. While I was there, I texted our son, Alex, and later said to Sharron that I hadn’t heard back. She said ‘did you ask a question? Because if you didn’t he won’t reply. He’ll just think you’re sending information.’ It’s the same for us [...]

We can spend a lot of time thinking about ourselves and how we are doing as a leader. But here’s another place to look. Ultimately, your leadership shows up in your impact on others. So why not have a good look there? One of my favourite writers, Larry Bossidy, guides you nicely: “How am I [...]

Hi, it’s a different sort of article this week. I just wanted you to know how well FED is doing and to thank you for your support. A marker of how far FED is spreading is that last week Leadership Plain and Simple became Amazon UK’s number one book on leadership. If you’ve not looked [...]

The other day, I bumped into the HR director at a client and she said ‘I don’t know what you’ve done to Charlie but thank you. He’s transformed. There’s a real glow to him.’ Charlie’s in a team I’m working with and, when I first met him, he looked flat, drained and grey. I chatted [...]
