Something a little different for the final episode of Season 3 as the tables have turned and I have found myself answering the questions instead of asking them!
Kirstie Brewer, a journalist at the BBC and a Leaders Plus Fellow, interviews me, Verena Hefti, the host of this podcast and the founder of Leaders Plus. I share my personal story of combining a senior leadership career with young children and why I set up the award-winning social enterprise Leaders Plus.
Kirstie asks fantastic questions and it was really interesting for me to be able to reflect on the journey so far.
We discuss:
