All rise together with Channel 4 People Director Kirstin Furber

My guest this week is Kirstin Furber. As the People Director for Channel 4 (and previously CPO Kantar and BBC Worldwide) she is on a mission to make the world a better place to work. A place where we can all do our best work, be human and reach our full potential for ourselves and others, helping great leaders build cultures that drive personal growth as well as creating success for the organisation.

Kirstin's  role is as a facilitator partnering  with leaders/managers and employees, so they can continue to evolve a culture where people can do their best work and C4 continues to deliver on its remit.

Kirstin talks about how you create a culture in which people can thrive, be creative, be themselves and also sometimes be able to admit that they are stressed and need support.

We cover topics of sustainability, diversity, inclusion, neuro-diversity and mental wellness.

Whether we work in an organisation, run our own business or are a solopreneur with a freelance team we are all in a position to people first, and with that, we help create a healthy eco-system for people and planet.

Thanks so much Kirstin for sharing how workplace culture can help people thrive and how in a changing flexible world, what that can look like for the health and well-being of people balancing career and life.

 Thanks also for showing us how to make work feel meaningful in a way that allows us to be our best selves without sacrificing our souls.
