03 Andrew Gowers: Former FT Editor

Andrew Gowers has had a remarkable career. From his boss being murdered by the Baader-Meinhof gang to witnessing the collapse of Lehman Brothers from the inside, he has seen it all. We dive into those topics as well as:

• How he prepared for interviews with figures like Vladimir Putin
• How to be an editor that gets the best out of writers
• How not to handle a crisis (from his inside experience with BP's Deepwater Horizon disaster)
