What happens when you have just 10 minutes to build a rapport, get to the heart of the problem and deliver potentially life changing news? How do you show up with humanity to every conversation every day? How do you look after yourself while looking after others?

We covered all this and more in our fascinating chat with the wonderfully open and curious Dr Matt Boardman. A management consultant turned GP, Matt shared his insights on how to communicate under pressure and some of the lessons business can learn from the doctor’s consultation room.

After a biology degree, Matt worked in media and management consultancy roles for seven years before retraining to study medicine. He is currently a GP at an innovative practice focusing on holistic patient care. In his spare time he can often be found on his allotment.
