Culture eats (strategy) for breakfast - Episode 6

They say culture eats strategy for breakfast, but what does a winning culture actually look like?

In this festive episode of Outperformance Matters, Stephen Yiu is joined by investment analyst Sam Herlihy to dissect the core behaviours of elite teams. From the cut-throat environment of professional football to the rigid discipline of the military, they discuss whether the barracks and the dressing room hold a secret to better investing.

Also in this episode:

Crystal … balls: Why the investment industry is obsessed with annual outlooks - and why Stephen refuses to publish one.

Myth-busting: Stephen argues that "seeing the whites of a CEO’s eyes" is overrated, revealing why his most successful investment is led by a boss he has never met.
