    Welcome to TellyCast Talks - the first in a new strand of interviews on TellyCast - featuring the media business leaders shaping tomorrow's content industry
    On TellyCast Talks, we’ll delve into the minds of only the most senior C- suite executives. These conversations are less focused on the corporate strategy of their organisations and more about the person behind the big decisions. We’ll ask why they took the decisions they have over the course of their career, the experiences that have shaped them and aim to reveal the qualities of a successful leader.

    Kicking off the series is Cathy Payne, CEO of Banijay Rights, the distribution arm of the global production juggernaut.
