S9E09: 35 years as CEO ... and the next chapter, with Adrian Weiler (Chair, Smart Freight Centre)

"I value trust a lot more than control."

We're continuing our season "Mission-Driven CEOs". Top Chief Execs talk about the impact they want to make beyond just the financials - in terms of the company mission and their personal leadership legacy - and how they put that into practice on a daily basis.  In this episode Richard Medcalf speaks with Adrian Weiler, who was CEO for over 35 years at Inform, an international software business focused on AI-based decision-making.

Adrian has now handed over the reins of that business, and we spoke to one of his successors, Matthias Berlit, on a previous episode of the podcast. Instead, Adrian is focusing on Smart Freight Centre, an NGO in the field of climate repair.
