40 years selling lead products is a long time in any ones life, I am really pleased that I have been able to contribute to the company's growth and success, during my time with the company Midland Lead have grown and diversified and successfully sold many tonnes of lead around the world, our lead has been fitted to Palaces, Castles, Cottages and roofs too many to mention. Hospitals, Health Centre’s, Clinics and Dental practices from here to Timbuktu have all had radiation shielding supplied by Midland Lead. Our product has been used as ballast weights in trains, Cranes, Lifts, Automobiles, Nuclear submarines and luxury yachts , it has been used in blockbuster Hollywood film sets, Aston Martin and McLaren are two companies we have sold product to, Film and TV stars have had their appearance maintained  thanks to the 20 tonnes of  lead weights used on bafta nights to keep the covers in place over the red carpet on wet and windy nights. Thin lead sheet was wrapped around oil and gas pipes in the Arabian desert to subpress noise which was frightening the Bedouins’ goat herds. Lead usage is varied to say the least, we all know about batteries but what about lead in coffins, pipe organs, decorative wreaths, roof covering on dolls houses, artistic book covers, weights in piano keys and golf clubs and rock crushing machines and one of the most unusual of all, it’s inclusion in high end ballet shoes. I doubt I will be here in 40 years time but someone will,  If you need lead sheet for roofing, cladding, healthcare or industrial applications get in touch. [email protected]

I've learned so much being part of the McChrystal Group team that it's hard to believe I've only been here for two years. The work this team does every day for our clients is not only interesting and impressive (though it is both) - it is impactful. I am inspired by the difficult, trusted advisor conversations being had, and the care that each of my colleagues brings to their work and client relationships. When you have the opportunity to bring forth innovative ideas, debate and refine them rigorously with colleagues, and then go execute them with clients who have big goals and even bigger visions... you work in a pretty special place. #teamofteams #leadershipdevelopment
