Andy Halliday spent over 30 years working in the police and for the vast majority of that time was serving as a Specialist Firearms Officer (SFO) for the Metropolitan Police.  Experienced through thousands of criminal and Counter Terrorist operations as an SFO as well as an elite sport coach, he has a deep understanding of how individuals and teams function and learn. 

Andy was involved in a number of high profile events. None more so than in 2005 being  a member of the team who entered Stockwell Tube station in London where a Brazilian national, Jean Charles de Menezes, was fatally wounded.  

Andy and Gaz talk about taking opportunities, growth mindset, stress reframing, learning from mistakes and also the Jean Charles de Menezes events.  

This is a fascinating conversation with a man who has experienced, reflected and learned from a lot!
