Eliot Wilson on decision-making in politics

When it comes to decision-making, there are few roles that have as much impact on everyone's lives as those taken by politicians. But what is it about politics, that brings out human risk?

On this episode, I'm joined by Eliot Wilson. He's a former Clerk to the UK Parliament — a role that saw him working to help run the operations of what is affectionately referred to as 'The Mother of Parliaments'. Today Eliot helps companies to adapt their strategy and communications to meet the needs of the 21st century. As a result, he's perfectly placed to help us explore the human risk within Parliament and whether the structures that have enabled it to survive, are still fit for purpose.

In our discussion, we explore politics from behind the scenes, how traditional parliamentary structures get the best — and the worst —out of politicians and whether we get the politicians we deserve.
