BBC Radio Wales - Tough at the top - What makes a leader?, Chris Coleman

Football manager Chris Coleman discusses leadership with Bethan Rhys Roberts.

Football manager Chris Coleman discusses his own personal experience of leadership with Bethan Rhys Roberts.

Every footballer’s dream is to represent their country on the world stage in a major tournament. Chris Coleman never realised that ambition as a player, but the opportunity came his way again, this time as manager of Wales. He took over in tragic circumstances and got off to a difficult start. Against the odds, he turned things around and eventually took Wales to their first major championship for decades, Euro 2016 in France. He and the team returned to a hero’s welcome. 

In the first in a new series, Bethan Rhys Roberts explores leadership and tries to understand what makes or breaks a leader. She meets those who have experience of leading at the very top, and her guest in this programme is Chris Coleman.
