The Leader’s Kitbag is the podcast that reveals what it really takes to lead and scale successfully—whether you’re growing a company, a business unit, or a team inside a larger organisation. Hosted by leadership expert Ben Morton, the show blends practical tips with deep insights through three distinct formats: #1. Leading the Scale-Up – Candid, long-form interviews with CEOs, founders, senior leaders, and authors who’ve faced the real challenges of scaling. These episodes dive into the key decisions, hard-earned lessons, and people-first strategies that made the biggest difference. #2. Leader’s Kitbag Episodes – Short, solo episodes (just 6 minutes) with Ben, sharing no-nonsense leadership and management advice you can apply immediately. #3. Shorts – High-impact clips from interviews past and present—including Leading the Scale-Up and the archive of The Ben Morton Leadership Podcast—designed to give you insight and inspiration in under 3 minutes. At the heart of every episode is the belief that great businesses are built by great people—and that human connection is the true currency of leadership. If you're looking for honest conversations, actionable tools, and a clearer path to leadership success, this is your kitbag for the journey.
