#88 - Conversing with a British Legend - Sir Bob Scott, International Ambassador and Outright Character

The Inspiration Space Podcast

Sir Bob Scott is a man deeply respected within the fabric of the United Kingdom. His involvement in moving the Theatre Industry forward in this country is unarguable. Not only that but his involvement in obtaining the Common Wealth Games to the City of Manchester in 2002 was crucial, as well as this he led Liverpool’s successful Bid to become the European Capital of Culture in 2008.

The one thing that sprung out to me when interviewing Bob was that he quite simply never settled for one career path. He moved onto whatevwe excited him most at the time. His undeniable characteristic of being curious led him into a tonne of different areas that have had an extremely positive impact. His persuasive tendencies provided him with sensational results in the areas he went into and for that this country should be ever so thankful. All of which resulted in his knighthood awarded in 1994.

This is slightly different to many episodes I have done due to the age and experience of Sir Bob. However that should be viewed as a positive as we are extremely lucky to have been gifted with an hour of this man's life. He is a truly fantastic man and I will always cherish the hour I got to spend with him.
