PODCAST WITH LEADERSHIP: Joining Peter Haddock for this latest podcast, sponsored by our friends at surveying and 3D machine control specialist, Leica Geosystems part of Hexagon, is Matthew Ayres, Group MD of Bennie Group which includes Barton Plant.

As one of the youngest leaders in our industry at just 28, Matthew brings a great deal of passion and enthusiasm to this episode, sharing his insights on a whole range of subjects from diversity and inclusion to safety, technology and how we drive the industry forward. 

Matthew also explains how a mistake has led him to be a vocal advocate for greater diversity and inclusion in our industry, which Content with Media is supporting in this podcast and other content we produce.

With this in mind, we also want to highlight a very personal and insightful article Matthew wrote for the CBI entitled 'How a mistake made me a more diverse leader' It is also why we have chosen to use the Cat D6 picture with Matthew displaying LGBT colours in our promotion of this podcast.
