A conversation about team development and culture with Huw Murdoch from Wild Life Bakery
Listen now
Description
In our second podcast following our inaugural Leadership in Hospitality event, Kai from our HR team sits down with Huw Murdoch from Wild Life Bakery to chat about team development and culture. Prior to founding Wild Life, Huw was the manager of Market Lane’s greatly missed Therry St shop, and he was instrumental in helping us establish a presence in the Queen Victoria Market. In 2016, Huw opened Wild Life Bakery on Albert Street in Brunswick East. The bakery quickly became an integral part of the Brunswick East community, and a destination for people seeking out Melbourne’s best sourdough bread. Huw recently opened an outpost, Wild Life Superette, on Sydney Rd in Brunswick. In this conversation, Huw talks with characteristic thoughtfulness and frankness about the ways he’s worked to foster a positive culture at Wild Life, the privilege and challenges of being an employer in hospitality, the benefits of cross-training team members, and how, at times, being a business owner can challenge his own moral compass.
