Episode 130: Keeping Planes in the Skies with Data with John Hudson

All public places get busy at some point in time, but nothing is as busy is airports – the run around the clock and they must do so with incredible precision and efficiency, as incidents and events that stop the flow of people and planes can cause a domino effect that can be hard to mitigate once it gets going. In this episode, I have the CTO of Manchester Airports Group, John Hudson, who sat down for a chat with me to talk about the work he does for them, how he rolls as a leader, all the way to sharing some bits of wisdom stemming from the experience he’s had as a techie and a tech leader. Key takeaways from the podcast are: • How to create champions from the people you have • The importance of succession plans and how they work • Why enjoying yourself while learning is important Our Guest: John Hudson LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-hudson-11588b2a/ Website: https://www.magairports.com/ Intro and background music: Craig MacArthur - Power Shutoff (www.youtube.com/watch?v=x74iB_jtauw)
