A lot of companies could learn from Timpson’s upside down management philosophy too. |  | |  |

Agree with this totally. Worth giving his Desert Island Discs a listen too. |  |

I'm certainly surprised to see him step down, and it would be interesting to know the wider reasons for his doing so. I was delighted to see him appointed as prisons minister, but did get the impression that he wasn't necessarily able to influence policy in the way he would have hoped. |  |

In short, he has publicly said he's done all he can in the role. Read into that what you will. |  |

Yup, that's rather telling. Given that his stance has always been that we send far more people to prison that we should, it was always going to take a radical change in public policy to allow him to bring about the changes he wants. |  |
