As Director General of the BBC, Tim Davie CBE runs one of the most high-profile organisations in the world, and is responsible for an annual turnover of over £5billion.
But running a gigantic organisation comes with gigantic challenges.
This year alone, Mr Davie has had to fend off four major scandals including stars such as Gary Lineker, Huw Edwards and Russell Brand – which most other leaders would not have survived.
However, by retaining the coolest of heads in the most scorching of corporate heat, he did survive – and he will be sharing some of his secrets in Aberdeen.
On December 14, he will join us at the Marcliffe Hotel for an exclusive Business Breakfast which will lift the lid on life at the top of the BBC.
