    Greg Hoffman - Creative Leadership Lessons From a Life at Nike

    Greg Hoffman turned up to Nike HQ in a borrowed van in 1992. Twenty seven years later, he left the building as a creative giant, having worked alongside the heroes of his youth at the highest level of sport. During his time as Global CMO, he led iconic campaigns across football, basketball, tennis and athletics, always looking outside himself, always listening and always trying to do better for himself and his team. His book Emotion By Design, distills that experience into an accessible manual for creative leaders. In this episode he sits down with Bookomi founder Richard Kilgarriff after a Books for Breakfast members' event at Soho House in London. To join Bookomi's mailing list - please apply HERE.

    Hephzi Pemberton - Building Strength in Diversity

    Hepzhi Pemberton has her work cut out: With a clear mission to prove that business (and society) does better when it embraces diversity, she's up against a self-harming system that starts at the top.For instance, in March 2021 there were more FTSE 100 CEO’s called "Andy" or "Steve" than there were female CEO's and CEO's from ethnic minorities combined. But it's not just race and gender bias that can get in the way of progress. Socio-economic barriers built up over decades still persist today.  For free guidance and advice, Hephzi recommends connecting with The Social Mobility Network . Meanwhile, The Diversity Playbook can be purchased via our independent book shop partner HERE.
