As we prepare to sign off from 2024, Team Principal Mike Krack sat down to answer some of our fans' weird and wonderful responses to his 'Mike on...' columns.
People have fun here. This looks like a jolly. I think you're watching too much Star Wars made. Ohh. Fernando Alonso. Hi everyone, it's Mike here and it's that time again. I finally got a moment to catch up on fan replies, so let's see what's landed in my inbox. A question from Matt. Hi Mike. Have you got any news resolutions? What did you like to do differently in 25? My girlfriend says mine should be to spend less time watching F1 on TV, but I'm going to watch more next year, lots more. Matt, I think you need a new girlfriend because you need to keep watching Formula One. And the resolution is that, yeah, we try to be better, that you have even more reason to watch Formula One. Keep me up to date. How it goes with your girlfriend? We have a message from Salvador. Hi, Mike. When I'm older, I want to work with Esther Martin on track. What should I study and what experience do I need to get a job with the team? Yeah, that is a good question. If you really want to do it, you should really try to follow your dream there. I think it's important that you you, you study what you like, be it mechanical engineering, be thermodynamics or what you like. And it's important you try to get as much experience in junior categories, local race teams or whatever. And then who knows, maybe one day we will remind your question and it is, it's coming with an IV and we we do it together. Good luck. Soji or Fernando Alonzo? Ohh, Fernando Alonso. Unfortunately this year we did not have much to sing and that is not good. We introduced that last year. I remember very well it first race. So yeah, let's let's try and do our best that we can cheer and sing that song again. It was Brazil. It's long, too long ago until we had that. A message from Andrew. Hey Mike, I have to laugh on that one. He said the teams new simulator is like Star Wars. What? What you say Adrian Newey is like the Yoda of F1. What do you think you will bring to the team when he joins next year? Will he use the force? PS You should make sure that the team mascot, he's green just like Aston Martin. I think Adrian will be the force to bring us forward, but I like the analogy. The new simulator is really like Star Wars. All in all, I think is a great step forward for us and once it is fully news, I think we would be a great benefit. This is not looking like Claudia. I'm Mike. I'm going to be honest with you. I'm really excited for the 26 season, but I'm also really nervous. The team needs to get it right. We are all trying to balance 25. In 26 as much as we can at the moment it's full steam 25 but with an eye on 26 and we will have your order soon helping us and his fourth so nothing can go wrong. So we have a message from Glennis. We had X-ray message from you last year. How Mike, Barcelona is my favorite city and track. I have almost always gone to Montbello a week in Barcelona first. Always a party atmosphere, dear. Yeah, Barcelona is a fun event. It's really, really nice. So my wife came actually the old this year and she spent more time in the city with my credit card and at the racetrack. But yeah, it's it's it's Fernando Land in Barcelona. And I really wish that if we manage 3330 days in Barcelona. Well, there was a lot of nice messages. Thank you very much for them really enjoyed to read them and to answer the tell them some of them. I think now I have the order with me for next year so nothing will go wrong. So maybe the force be with the two of us. Happy new year.
Good insight from Gary Neville, something that hiring managers could adopt in the corporate world. Empower your employees to succeed, remember you made the decision to take them into your business through what should be a well structure hiring process that enables you to hire the best talent, but is also a great experience for the candidate, should they be successful in getting the job or not.

The relationship between leaders and employees is that simple. Mutual respect and expectations being met.
As an employee, never be afraid to challenge a leader if there is a belief expectations are not being met.
As a leader, aim to articulate how you intend to meet those expectations, and develop your staff with the skills and confidence to do the same.
Thanks Gary Neville , for constant articulation of lessons in leadership. 👏🏼👏🏼

What can business leaders and owners learn from the great Sir Alex Ferguson?
Its about culture, team work, communication; repeating the principles below regularly to the team.
Here are the 4 main messages Gary Neville teaches us:
1) Sir Alex made it very simple - this makes it easy to remember and follow
2) Its normal to doubt yourself, whether a leader or a team member
3) Leaders need to reassure their team members that they have been picked due to their skill and talent, therefore they can trust the leader's choice in them and remind them they are capable - make them FEEL great
4) In return for the faith and choice in them, the team members are asked to:
-Work as hard as they can
-Never give in
-Whatever the result - win, loose or draw, come back the day after and do it again
It is fair to say that the Man U team under his leadership showed those traits, and it lead to amazing success.
What do you think? Like if you found this useful. Thanks Gary, i found it very insightful.
