OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
Most people associate dyslexia with challenges in reading, writing or spelling. Paul Wright sees something different.
After building a career spanning Sky, Apple, Amazon, Uber and Farfetch, Paul believes the same trait he spent years trying to manage helped shape the way he thinks, leads and builds businesses.
In this episode, Paul shares why dyslexic thinking often creates stronger entrepreneurs, how pattern recognition can become a competitive advantage, and why great leaders learn to embrace different ways of thinking rather than forcing people to conform.
We also explore the moments behind the CV: losing confidence, experiencing poor leadership, going to therapy, and learning that success isn't measured by job titles but by the impact you have on others.
This is a conversation about leadership, neurodiversity, entrepreneurship and discovering that the thing you thought was holding you back may actually be pushing you forward.
In this episode:
• Building a career across Sky, Apple, Amazon, Uber and Farfetch
• The hidden reality of living and working with dyslexia
• Losing confidence and finding perspective through therapy
• Why great leaders adapt to people, not the other way around
• The connection between entrepreneurship and neurodiversity
• Learning, growth and the power of mentoring others
• Why your network matters more than you realise
#BehindTheTitle #Leadership #Dyslexia #Neurodiversity #Podcast #CareerJourney
In any industry, job titles carry power, perception, and pressure. But behind every title CEO, CMO, CFO is a person navigating private challenges, mental health struggles, and silent turning points that shape who they are and how they lead.
Behind the Title is a candid podcast that pulls back the curtain on these personal stories.
Through honest, structured conversations with leaders at all levels, we explore the inner lives that fuel (and sometimes unravel) outer success.
Think of it as Alcoholics Anonymous for the media industry, but instead of substance, we talk about silence, stress, self-worth, and the systems that shape us.
