This is a keynote I delivered for the Swedish Institute. I talk about the who, what, why and where of leadership. Together, we design your very own leadership prototype.

Remember you are a leader - regardless of job title, status or age - you can and should lead. Let’s build a world that celebrates and encourages every day acts of leadership from all of us.

What does it mean to challenge the status quo? Why should you encourage your employees to challenge the status quo?

Last November we invited our clients and business friends to have this conversation with UK Doctor Meenal Viz. This episode is a recording of this event. Meenal became a global figure after her one-woman protest outside Downing Street in 2020 following the death of a fellow health care worker just days before.

Meenal reflects on her decision to protest against the systemic issues health care workers are facing - and what organisations can learn from her approach.

Grace was my word for 2022. This episode is about why I’m not ready to give up grace yet, how it helped me in 2023…my hopes for grace being my word for 2023.

And I introduce three ways you can activate grace in your life.

Public service announcement 🔔 TIS' THE SEASON OF THE MENTAL LOAD. Women can get very stressed over Christmas believing the fun is in their hands. Christmas is not your responsibility.⁠ ⁠

In the spirit of having a fair play Christmas, I recommend pouring a glass of wine, sitting down with your partner/ family and making intentional choices about how you want to spend the holiday together as a couple, or as a family.⁠ ⁠

The past 3 years have been absolutely brutal for so many. I’m exhausted absorbing the bullshit put on all the women to do all the things to make the end of this hard year “magical”⁠ ⁠

Let’s revolt! (whilst in pyjamas)⁠ ⁠

Will you join me and share a list of all the thing you are *not* doing this December? ⁠

In this episode, I talk you through my December to don’t list and invite you to write your own. ⁠

“The Erin Brockovich of Bradford” is how the press have described Donna Patterson, an UPFRONT Bond 6 graduate who took her employer to court for maternity discrimination, and she won. She took no other than Morrisons to court by herself and WON. But this isn’t about Morrisons, this is about Donna, and the change she is making, those she will inspire.

Listen to hear Donna’s story - feeling of hopeful is guaranteed.
