The Children’s Society’s boss on the challenges of leadership in a time of polycrisis
Description
Lucinda Rouse and Andy Ricketts are joined by Mark Russell, chief executive of The Children’s Society.
Mark speaks openly about the challenges of leading a major charity through half a decade of polycrisis and the toll it has taken on his mental health.
He stresses the need for chief executives to act as role models in maintaining boundaries between work and personal life, and the critical role of boards in supporting exhausted charity bosses.
He explains how The Children’s Society’s biggest ever fundraising appeal, which will launch in the spring and aims to raise £100m by 2030, is grounded in its conviction that every child deserves a good childhood.
