In the second episode of our leadership podcast series Ndidi Okezie, CEO of UK Youth, joins us to demystify leadership and explore why 63% of CEO’s are female and only 6% black and minority ethnic. Hear her thoughts on how to not let our own fears and self-doubt restrict us from making an impact.

Our leadership series is an opportunity to hear directly from sector leaders on how to get to grips with key strategic challenges. How do you deliver influence and impact, what’s the secret to communicating inspiring stories, where do you focus your energy to drive an organisation mission forward? Every leader has their own style – there is no right or wrong way but learning to be gained from past experiences.
