Matthew Johnson, the Director of IR & CEO Office at Vodafone, joins us in this episode to talk about the soft skills and psychology knowledge that have served him well in his career. He takes us back to when he first started working in corporate strategy, eventually finding his calling in IR. We hear about the different roles and industries he’s operated in, as well as the skills and knowledge he’s accumulated over his career journey. Matthew explains his approach to coaching and maintaining consistent communication within his team, plus how that relates on a broader scale to Vodafone’s subsidiaries. One of Matthew’s interests is behavioural psychology. He explains how he uses this to inform his approach to communicating with investors – both in meetings and in documentation.
