A true leader creates lasting change by fostering meaningful connections, empowering others, and building bridges between business and community. My legacy will be empathy, collaboration, and sustainable impact.

- Jane Nicholson-Biss

I prioritise professional development to align individual aspirations with team goals, inspiring others to reach their full potential and contribute to our collective success. My goal is to build a legacy of impactful leadership that inspires future generations to lead with empathy, vision, and purpose.

- Selveena Parmanum

I believe that great leadership starts with making people feel valued and truly heard. When individuals know their voices matter, they gain the confidence to grow, innovate, and reach their full potential. My hope has always been to create a reflective space where people feel nurtured and supported—where they are not only challenged but also encouraged to be the best version of themselves. Leadership, to me, isn’t about authority; it’s about fostering an environment where people thrive.

- Clare Belle

My leadership legacy is about empowering future leaders to rise with confidence, resilience and a deep sense of purpose. I want to be remembered for encouraging growth, unlocking potential and creating a culture where people feel valued, inspired and capable of achieving more than they thought possible.

Leadership is not about who you are, or what you can do, but what you help others become and what they can achieve!

- Oliver Rendell

Through my leadership, I want people to be inspired by the way I value them. In meetings, I consider everyone cleverer than I, and always seek to elevate others in the room. Honour them. Be inspired by them. Leadership is a two-way street.

- David Tazzini-Lloyd

A human approach to leadership - encouraging others to achieve more and hopefully leaving a positive impact!

- Gaynor Lewis

I want my leadership legacy to reflect the strengths that women bring to the world - empathy, emotional intelligence, resilience, authenticity, humility, and grace. Not to be led by ego but to be honest, compassionate and fair. 

- Julie-Anne Passey

I am passionate about helping people confidently navigate complexity. By applying systems approaches we simplify challenges, make better decisions and create more effective, long-lasting solutions. True leadership is not about avoiding complexity—it’s about embracing it with clarity and confidence.

- Martin Parr

Compassionate leadership values every contact, building trust through empathy and open communication. It's seeing the person, not just the task, creating a culture where everyone feels heard. As a senior leader with ADHD, I know this is crucial. Leading with heart means valuing individual strengths, adapting, and fostering connection. Even in tough times, compassion guides us. This approach builds a humane workplace, one interaction at a time.
