Josam Watson is Chief Risk Officer (CRO), of digital banking company Tyme.

Having an exceptional life starting in Zimbabwe where he couldn’t afford shoes as he was growing up, Josam has grown into an exceptional leader over the course of his career. This podcast details that journey.

We talk about:

How the development of a Chief Risk Officer has occurred.The value of root cause analysis and how it can help organisations from failing. Why Josam thinks individuals are easy to blame in leadership but this isn’t necessarily the best way to fix problems.The story of a pedantic leader who shaped him and made him realise who he didn't want to be.How he asks himself whether he is being the kind of leader he said he wanted to be when he is making critical decisions. What it was like to watch banks fail in real-time and what he believed went wrong.His challenging teenage years in Zimbabwe and how that still influences him today.

And Much More.

This podcast episode was co-hosted by Jack Ferguson and Sumith Dissanayake.
