a culture of fear at 10 downing street in terms of leadership style you focus on communication within businesses do you see a problem in the british government. well we've had headlines hair over the last couple of days that have included the chancellor as media adviser being escorted out from downing street by an armed police officer we have conservative and he's threatened with the sack if they go against the government tomorrow now my research is in the business context and i look at choices that we have around speaking up or staying silent and one of the questions i ask in organizations in my research is what happens when you speak up round here and recently i had one organization the response to that question was you just sit there now i know so with that response would be the same in british politics at the moment but if it would be then there's quite serious consequences. and when there is such

a culture of silence one of the consequences. we focus really on 3 consequences really a firstly if people can't speak cop they're obviously not sharing issues around problems and not highlighting areas of misconduct and then the festa leaders know about things is usually when it is on the front page of the newspaper for all the wrong reasons and reputations are in taxes so that's one reason 2nd reason is we need people to speak up when we need innovation and ideas and i dog is that the current situation and i mean certainly calls for some of that and i think the 3rd reason the silence is a problem in business but similarly also in politics is that we know that people's opinion knowing that their opinion counts is really linked to ords motivation and then performance we also saw some headlines in the newspaper that talks about

civil service motivation being very low at the moment and falling and those things take quite some time to recover from. briefly do you think there's anything the british politicians can learn from business leaders and the special cards right i'll. well in business for quite a few years we've talked about what we call of the context volatile. complex and i'm big u.s. and i think those full words probably describe the bricks in the process fairly well at the moment in that kind of context what we call a heroic leadership style which is where certainty is advocated from the top can be quite a gamble certainly in business context when you're faced with this sort of situation . can be that what we call listening leadership where facilitation and mediation skills are crucial can be more effective in bringing multiple diverse perspectives together so from

a business perspective we would probably say that that kind of leadership style is a gamble making rights professor at holt international business school thank you very much. a thing in the u.k. it's been called the unhealthiest place in britain with high rates of alcoholism and low life expectancy now the seaside town of blackpool is preparing for life after brags that by working on its resiliency and positive thinking. school can be awful you know so can teachers. and blackpool is well peoples of west cliff primary are very familiar with those sentiments blackwell has one of the highest levels of child poverty in britain as a result many kids like resilience they don't know how to overcome difficulties or take on challenges like joy and generally is teaching them the art of dealing with crises so that they come out stronger a lot they still is just normal everyday ordinary ways of coping sometimes the

children don't yet know how to do it resilience research has identified a set of qualities necessary for successful living me and her team equipped kids with skills like positive thinking and developing personal responsibility new concepts for many here. it would just be a lot more. goal of would how to. do it myself and. to do it i think it makes me happy that swig getting trained by the residents people in blackpool and another thing is that we're in blackpool which is really in place. sadly that's not a common view the seaside towns demise began in the 1970 s. when british holiday makers discovered the allure of the mediterranean since then blackpool has been in decline until now it's time to change the town's image say

those behind projects like resilience pathway made of 42 paving stones with thought provoking statements like engage mentors and be brave it's the work of head start a network of schools and local action groups together they're driving blackpool's resilience revolution. they've grown in confidence they believe they have a purpose and a voice now in the town in a sense of belonging here so that's the biggest thing but we do have some really early findings so we know that approximately 90 percent of young people he was supporting his self harming don't need to go back through the crisis care that all sounds too good to be true and yet the effects are clear take 12 year old car in for example self-proclaimed super hero someone who tackles things head on my create my own resilience great skill. that enable here 7 students and staff at home to come to cameron blackpool is developing courage discovering

a sense of hope it won't be the only answer of course but it's certainly a big step towards making life here far more worth living. for us in poland have agreed to cooperate to develop 5 g. technology polish prime minister matteo more viet scheme and u.s. vice president mike pence signed the deal in warsaw with head saying it would quote ensure the security of digital infrastructure washington has been warning its allies not to use equipment from china's huawei calling it a security threat. meanwhile hallway is set to present its latest smartphone the mate 30 on september 19th in munich and unlike its other devices this one comes without google's android operating system and without apps like you tube or google maps that. to washington ban google for making its technology available to huawei investors will be closely watching just how well the chinese tech giant can sell without a brand name operating system. and

for more on this let's go to our financial correspondent leigh bods in frankfurt only what kind of disadvantage does this put huawei out it has to be a pretty significant one yes it does one comment in the german media today said that basically with the android while way you can say goodbye to the european market yes it has high quality hardware camera processors screen but it's really nothing without the kind of activity with the application and the apps that you can load and also the social media that you're connected to the mail system g. mail which comes with android so in all likelihood we don't know this but in all likelihood way is going to lose customers without the android and this is going to be a boon to the competition 1st and foremost probably sam's own perhaps less so so apple but it's also of course the disadvantage to the consumers who have one less company

to choose from in this important market with android technology and with a while way hardware technology and only very briefly i want to ask you about this bread showdown today i would imagine investors are very interested in what's going on there. yes they are it's a crucial question the question is one that hurting sentiment in the markets and the economy it's co responsible for the world economy slowing it's also hitting many firms and many firms are just very worried about it the problem is nobody knows what will ensue when a new deal brecht's that actually comes the whole situation is a very important question for the market everyone will be watching what takes place in london today including us and really thank you very much really bards in frankfurt. argentina's financial crisis has taken a turn for the worse as more investors flee the country's assets there fearing a repeat of the 2001 default which threw the country into one of its worst economic

crises the government is now scrambling to do what it can to keep the country above water. capital controls that's the argentinean government's latest response to the country's worsening economic crisis since sunday ordinary people have faced restrictions for foreign currency exchanges and many are ready queuing to withdraw u.s. dollars for as long as it's still allowed. the lessons of the art of it and this takes me back to 2001 as you start distrusting bags if you have money you want to take it out of the bank and keep it at home until trust in the bank has been reestablished. and. businesses are also affected exporters now have 5 days to exchange their foreign currency into pencils that's something the government hopes will stem the passes for. the argentinian currency has been falling it has now tumbled nearly 24 percent since august 11th
