Welcome to the first-ever episode of The Whole Truth: Leadership Stories with Sarah Perugia!

This episode is with the wonderful Jo Kerr, Head of Purpose at Brandpie, who has over 25 years of experience helping businesses become more purpose-driven.

Having built experience laterally in business strategy, insights, brand, culture, and communications, she now applies this combined experience to helping large, complex B2B organisations transform through the power of purpose.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Jo’s journey and how she’s helping global organisations uncover and operationalise their purpose, aligning their mission with a higher vision beyond profit
• Why it matters
• Her work with academia to prove the value and impact that purpose can have on organisations and their ecosystems

As a values-driven leader, Jo also reflects on the lessons she’s learned throughout her 25-year career and offers advice on staying curious, trusting your instincts, and embracing your authentic leadership style.

Get ready to be inspired!
