Neil Lennon - Lessons in leading through playing and managing at the top level

I caught up with former Manchester City, Crewe Alexandra, Leicester and Celtic player Neil Lennon for this interview.

Neil came to England when he was a fresh-faced 16 year old lad and forged a career in football that's taken him to the English Premier League, captaining Celtic against European giants and managing in Scotland, England and Cyprus.

In this conversation Neil talks about:

Man City as a youthEarly influences on his careerBuilding resilience through setbacksMartin O'Neill's impact on himGlory days at Leicester CityMan management in the gameWinning mentalitiesPantomime villanMoving to CelticCaptaining and managementDealing with disappointmentCulture differences in Cyprus

This was a great episode to record. A big thank you to Neil for coming to meet me and thanks to the Gleneagles Townhouse for having us.
