In this engaging episode, Minter Dial welcomes back Thom Dennis, ex-Royal Marine officer, former CEO, and the founder of Serenity in Leadership, to discuss his new book, Rewilding the Corporate Mind: Rediscovering Nature’s Blueprint for Leadership in an Age of Disruption and Division. The conversation focused on the urgent need to rethink conventional leadership paradigms by drawing inspiration from nature’s complexity and wisdom. One concept discussed was the rewilding metaphor itself—how letting go of excessive control, both in business and in personal development, can create space for healing, creativity, and genuine innovation. A key theme that emerged was the importance of trust—both in oneself as a leader and within organisations more broadly. The discussion explored the dangers of Victorian-era control, the pitfalls of binary thinking in management, and the subtle but essential role of humanities and broader perspectives in rebalancing cultures that have long prized only economics, engineering, and linear ROI metrics. Several points were raised, including the difference between destructive command-and-control systems and more regenerative, self-sustaining models of leadership, as well as what businesses can learn from ecological restoration and the wisdom of indigenous approaches. Whether you’re grappling with corporate burnout, seeking new models of transformation, or simply curious about how to foster healthier cultures amid disruption, this episode offers a profound meditation on leadership, resilience, and the need to reconnect with both nature and ourselves. Tune in for an exploration that challenges received wisdom and opens up fresh pathways for bringing humanity back into business.
