What does it take to lead one of the world’s largest conservation organisations through a time when 41% ofUK species are in decline?

And how can today’s conservation leaders inspire millions to fight for biodiversity?

Today’s guest, Beccy Speight, CEO of the RSPB, offers her insights into what it takes to manage over 1.2 million members and 200 reserves across the UK.

In this episode, we discuss the RSPB’s mission, the role of effective leadership, and Beccy’s own career path from local government to conservation leadership.

Beccy shares the biggest challenges she faces, her hopes for the RSPB over the next decade and what advice she’d give to anyone looking to enter the conservation sector.

It’s an inspiring, insightful, and mission-driven podcast.
