About the Podcast

The Potential for What? Podcast
Jo Taylor asks a range of professionals about how they spot potential.
Welcome to 'The Potential for What?' podcast. Brought to you by Jo Taylor, MD of Let's Talk Talent a UK based Talent Management Consultancy. https://letstalktalent.co.uk/

We believe that everyone is talented, and that everyone has potential. But the question is, the potential for what?

We're here to explore this topic with a range of leaders from HR, business and beyond to open up about how to spot, get and nurture potential in those around us.

Join us, where each episode we join a leader in their field and ask them about potential, what it means for them, and how they harness, support and empower the potential in others.
