Help people create the best work of their careers. Don't lock people into a single way of doing things. Enable them. This is an uncommon job description for a manager, let alone a CEO. Yet, when we strip away title and role perception, at the heart of this episode's conversation is one man's noble hope and a responsibility he takes very seriously.

Emmet shares his journey into and beyond the role of CEO. He pauses to reflect on the people and themes that have made a difference to him and his own career.

In this conversation he touches on topics like the difference between leadership and management, working with family, relationship building, mentorship, startup challenges, the creative industry, and education technology.
