Big Ideas

Through our interviews with inspiring entrepreneurs, we highlight bold and ambitious ideas that have the potential to revolutionise the future. These ideas might seem impossible now, but if not us, then who? Together, we can shape a more equitable and fair world for everyone.

Helen’s book aims to simplify how working mothers discuss their careers with children by demystifying what they do for a living. Helen also touches on potential breakthroughs around normalising discussions of whole personhood at work and redefining success beyond traditional definitions that no longer resonate. Her work highlights the potential to shape a more equitable future through authentic leadership.
