"Think Big, Get Shit Done, Have Fun"

Esther Foreman has spent 20 years in the social-good space, time spent running award-winning campaigns, supporting enterprise and building teams. Her career went from Doctors without Borders, Shelter, Help the Aged and Mencap to the Social Change Agency, where she supports over 600 organisations to grow, innovate and support people through fiscal and process hosting.   

We start with some excellent (though quite niche) holiday advice from James before we wonder whether our latest guest is related to Kenneth, and then we dive into a packed episode including a failed PhD, how leadership and cults go wrong and the magic in decentralised technology. There’s a life-changing meeting with Bob Geldof, a reminder of Kenneth’s cover-star status and the unique challenges for middle-children. Then there’s female founders, why you should choose a chauffeur over a babysitter and a cool origin story. We dive into our risk-appetite, getting the money to those making the impact and a call to arms for mutual aid.

It’s a belter.

Our guest on the podcast this week has worked in fundraising since the year 2000. If you can find a fundraising trainer more passionate and purpose-driven about the sector, we’re yet to find them.

His business, Brightspot Fundraising, has helped thousands of individuals to unlock their potential in fundraising. Offering a series of expertly constructed courses and programmes we’ve been huge fans of this guest and his role in the sectors for many years.So much so, that this will be his second appearance on the pod, originally joining us in Dec 2017 in what was our 20th episode.

We’re pleased to welcome back Rob Woods to the Do More good podcast.

"It's a community coming together"

James and Kenneth struggle to contain their excitement around the upcoming International Fundraising Congress, mainly due to the prospect of dressing up as their hometown myths and legends. Fortunately they are joined by CEO of The Resource Alliance, Willeke Van Rijn to bring some sense (and a sense of health and safety) to proceedings.

We hear about the young eighteen year old who dreamt of seeing the world and the career which followed, working in a variety of roles and continents before taking the helm at the organisers of the IFC. There’s passion, curiosity, pressure and ambition. We talk about the expectations on the event, who to look out for and what not to miss. There’s news from backstage, how to make the most of the the experience and ensuring you scoop every spoonful of custard from the jar.

LAST CHANCE PROMOTION


In collaboration with our friends at The Resource Alliance, we are delighted to offer £175 off tickets to the event coming up on the 17th October 2023 for Do More Good listeners. I know, right?
Simply use the code IFC175 when registering, but hurry, we only have a handful of tickets. Head to www.resource-alliance.org and we’ll see you in Noordwijk!

“Darling, I’m on the 7.10“

Our favourite emojis is a hot topic this week as we chat to Matt Collins about the career which led to him setting up his own agency. James takes a day off for a climate rally in order to avoid school whilst Kenneth is top of the class, earning his FA badges. Matt tells us how he dreamt of joining Childline as a kid then worked there as an adult. We admit to the temptation of working for profit, before adhering to Matt’s Dad’s wishes to do good, perhaps on the radio. Kenneth’s Dad, it turns out, is Welsh.

There’s a discussion on why colleagues are leaving the sector, how to build a passionate team and the texts Mrs Kenneth receives at ten-past seven. We chat mental health and therapy, stay up late at night and day-dream about winning awards. There’s the future of the sector and terrifying twenty year olds, all before we get to the all-new quickfire round.

"Work hard and be nice."

A private members club, no less, is our venue for this week's episode, not the kind of place you'd expect to see the cereal box challenge. James is limping and Kenneth gets emotional, fortunately Rosie and Simon are on hand to talk us through the opportunities and pitfalls of social media. We learn about frustrated showjumpers, reducing screen time and the importance of good hair in job interviews.

We chat mental health, develop super-powers and bring our authentic selves to the Twitter party. James swots up on Bake Off, Kenneth is the modern-day Dickens and we all get too many notifications.

“There’s a Peruvian Division Two game on“

This week on the Kenneth Foreman Podcast we start with a brief recap from our summer holidays and some now utterly redundant excitement around the Ashes. Our guest is genuinely impressed at some private investigation before we’re disappointed that she didn’t bring the breakfast samples. Sue Anstiss MBE (no less) joins the show to talk us through her career and how she went from selling chocolate from the boot of her car to eclipsing her siblings and securing the long-awaited GB vest.

We hear about how she set up her agency at just 26, the power of sport to change lives and, if you listen carefully, how to correctly pronounce Stockholm. There’s an exclusive live-on-air plus a reminder of what staple should always form part of a successful campaign. We talk about challenges in the wider industry and how to keep a team motivated before we get into a discussion around the prevalence of gambling in sport and what we can do to combat it.

James finds love on the cross country course, Kenneth turns down a big-money sponsorship opportunity and we all get a lesson in 21st century role models.

“Ultimately, you need people who care“

We kick off with a round-up on nicknames this week before we hear how Puff Story started her career in New York at the age of 21. She went on to swap the bright lights of the Big Apple for the bright sparks of the Silicon South and joined an agency focused solely on life-saving, life-changing or problem-alleviating projects, without any compromise and a crazy business model.

We learn about setting your organisation’s mission, selecting staff and inspiring the next generation. We hear about dodging hurricanes, delivering blood and adopting the Top Gun approach to training. James accidentally downloads YouTube, Kenneth checks out some coarse fishing videos and Puff predicts an imminent podcast-wreck. There’s the dangers of the infinite scroll, dark patterns and how we can employ ethical design to sleep well at night. Plus there’s risk-aversion, the unstoppable rise of voice and consideration of the limits to Alexa’s power. There’s time for Nikos to think he’s won it and the best nickname of all time.

We do not, however, discuss AI.

“Everything is on fire, please come and sort it out“

This is one for the scrapbooks as Kenneth and James record an episode to listen back to when they’re fifty seven. To help, Zoe Amar joins them describing how she turned her back on mergers & acquisitions, forwent investment banking and instead used law to help people. The legal profession proved useful when switching to the charity sector, not mention her involvement with the feared St Alban’s mafia, of which she is a key player.

Zoe describes how she extinguishes fires, defeats online trolls and avoids the all you can eat buffet. Plus we’re talking about how you can integrate your work rather than layer it, giving the supporter a better experience. Zoe questions leaders in the sector and provides the stats to show the pace of change has been far too slow recently.

James scraps his plans for an audience survey whilst Kenneth likes the look of the corner office, so Zoe describes her own experiences of diversity in the third sector giving us some quick wins and gives the guys some tips on how to attract some new listeners to the show.

"A lady I will never meet saved my life"

After James spent a couple of days furiously scribbling notes and Kenneth spent hours practising his presentation, your hosts bumped into Claire Warner in the bar at the IoF Convention.

They got chatting about her career, how it all began as a ballsy 21 year old who thought she could secure sponsorship without any experience whatsoever. There's the benefits of a life involving artistic endeavour and helping people to be the best they can be.

Claire describes how people buy passion and Kenneth worries about how he has become the average of the six people he spends most time with. There's just time for James to wonder why people listen to outsiders more than insiders before things get emotional...

Claire details her love-hate relationship with social media, despite the fact it saved her life and propelled part of her to viral stardom, securing offers of TV appearances around the world. Our guest tells her story from diagnosis to paying it forward through the support of strangers and how she wants to improve the sector for everyone.

"I speak in emoji sometimes."

Following his hit blog post on his future in the sector we chat to wannabe-vet Joe Freeman about his roles to date and where he plans to go as he steps into the big office. We manage to keep a straight face as Kenneth details his childhood ambitions to become a doctor and lament the loss of the James' Jolly Newspaper from the presses.

Joe describes the genesis of digital teams in charities and how we're monitoring the next generation of leaders coming to the fore. We hear what it takes to become Insta-famous and how they align with the skills Joe looks for in applicants to his teams. We also highlight some great work being done at the moment and the highlights of Joe's career.

K-Dizzle sneaks in a mention of New Media Age magazine, we question whether we need to be more ethically aware in choosing platforms, how conversations are turning private and force Joe to decide live on air where his next role will be. Joe remains steadfast in his refusal to boost James' Twitter followers so in an act of petty vengance we leave in the section we promised to edit out.

"We have created some art."

We're feeling reflective this week as we talk podcasts with Rachel Stephenson Sheff, the presenter and producer of the hugely successful 'What Donors Want'. Your own hosts make a great first impression by giving an update on Kenneth's decking and describing the weather. Fortunately Rachel brings some class to proceedings with talk of jazz and opera whilst dropping phrases like 'medium-du-jour' and detailing how she developed her show from brainstorm to blockbuster.

We chat the lure of rom-coms, pick a spice girl and warn of dangerous driving as we discuss how do develop your own show; finding guests, as well as your niche; and reveal top tips for writing a cold email. We're amazed by Kenneth's surprisingly high-brow dream guest, shocked at James' reaction to feedback and reveal why Rachel's career as a comedy critic never took off.

With euphemisms for fundraising, playing the long game and the reassurance that if your podcast falls quietly in the woods, it doesn't make a sound no matter how much you spent on high-end professional microphones.

"No refunds."

Kenneth and James failed to make it along to Pizza for Losers, but keen to ensure not everyone missed out we enlisted roving reporter Alfie Waldron to capture the day. Facing his own failures from the start, Alfie learnt how we're sick of winners yet why we're uncomfortable talking about our own mistakes. There is a guide to what you need to develop a strong culture and how failure happens to good people as well as your regular hosts. We're introduced to Katherine Johnson and Margaret Hamilton who landed mankind on the moon, and the Pablo Escobar of Pop who landed S-Club7 in A&E. Speakers describe their findings from twitter polls, why we should embrace a growth mindset and become a human-rights-defender in our lunchbreaks. There's the power of resilience, one-word organisational strategies and the opportunity to tell QR codes what you really think of them. Afterall, we fail because we try.

Our thanks to Nikki Bell (the international jetsetting consultant) for the invitation, Josh Leigh for the Toyota and Alfie Waldron for saving the day. You can see more on our guest presenter at www.domoregood.uk/alfie

"I'm excited about the next generation of leaders."

This week Kenneth is flying solo as he meets lifelong fundraiser, mentor extraordinaire and all-round optimist Richard Sved. Whilst the cool kids are out seeing bands, we break our golden rule and also get stuck in to some manual labour.

Meanwhile Richard describes how he thought he had escaped the pull of management consultancy and his passion for the sector, where it all began and how his career has led him to charities large and small. He reveals his pre-match routine for walking in the door at a new client, the power of listening and finding time for his own personal development. Failure is on the agenda for the next couple of episodes and Richard describes how important this is, as well as identifying your personal stress indicators and what to do when they show. Plus there's vulnerability, excitement and a heartfelt confession, all with a cheap gin and tonic.

"We don't give enough kudos to fundraisers"

To reduce our FOMO from missing the Scottish Fundraising Conference this year we talked to the host of the Awards Ceremony for his thoughts on the sessions, his love of conferences and how he manages not to cry when presenting the oscars.

Kenneth talks us through his travel itinerary, James dresses for the occassion and we hear about the pre-recording hype for our guest and his previous appearance from the bar in Glasgow last year. We delve into Gerald's career, thank Gloria for setting him on the path and discuss his move to Scotland from the United States including what he misses from home. Then we have tips for new attendees, a sneak preview of Gerald's session, prepare to meet the CEO of Revlon and get a sneak peak of his outfit for the big night next week.

"Kenneth is the clever one."

After a London Marathon hiatus, the boys are back with an episode from The Stroke Association's Amazing Brains evening at the Science Museum. Joined by Becky Francis and the man known internally as the King of Cheese, Tony Banks - we're talking about how events like these are key in raising awareness and prompting future support.

Tony describes how his career developed from awards events with journalists to shots at the bar with Dukes. He gives advice on where to focus your attention on the build up, remaining calm in the maelstrom of event night and how the evolution of the sector leads to opportunities for anyone to shine. Meanwhile Becky shuts down vicious rumours on Twitter and highlights how the night gives her an opportunity to enjoy different conversations with supporters whilst learning more and becoming inspired herself.

Kenneth, the clever one, struggles to find the words to describe the last few weeks and wants to better understand his kids, meanwhile James enjoys the complimentary bar whilst keeping his south-London roots under wraps. On the whole, it's a less sweaty environment to what they're used to.

Our thanks to The Stroke Association for the invitation to attend.

"Charities prefer to hire people in the sector, they're missing a trick."

In this episode we're chatting comms with champion figure-skater Kirsty Marrins. She describes how redundancy was the best thing that ever happened to her despite the excitement of 2014.

We discuss the importance and selflessness of networking, despite the hangovers, and how building a consultancy comes from word of mouth. Plus there's social media gold to be found on old accounts before any of us knew what we were doing, which is fortunate as it's difficult to measure the impact.

Meanwhile there are lay-offs at DMG Headquarters which is difficult when haircuts need to be paid for, nevertheless we all need development so don't miss the opportunity to compliment your boss' pet.

"You are the solution to a problem the donor is trying to solve."

This week the boys meet Carlos Miranda, the founder of I.G. Advisors, Social Misfits Media and Lighful. We chat about how he grew up wanting to be a film director but turned out as Beyonce, pulling in $100m dollar gifts for the New York City library and maintaining a healthy coffee addiction. There are the common themes facing major-giving teams in the UK and what they have learnt from their counterparts in the US. We throw down the gauntlet to twitter users everywhere and make a plea to the winner of Papa New Guinea X Factor. Kenneth and James learn how there's no place quite like London, dressing down your pitch and passing the airport test. We find out how much someone can change, how to enjoy lunch and how to become the most important person in someone's career.

Don't worry, we paid extra for the banter.

"I don't have any kind of grand plan."

For the start of Season Three, Kenneth and James are joined by Hilary Evans from Alzheimer's Research UK. Hilary has overseen massive growth in the organisation since taking over as CEO but reveals how she built a strategy for the organisation in just two months.

We hear how you can really drive change as Chief Executive, providing you make the most of the opportunities which come your way and how people and relationships are key whoever you are and whatever you're doing. Kenneth turns up with an apple for the teacher but we learn he is the most likely to misbehave after dark whilst James realises where he's been going wrong all these years and reveals it was he who came up with 'triangle'. We are back with the difficult third album.

"We’ve had enough of winners!"

Season Two is going out with a belter of an episode, live from the loudest pub in London. Confirmed Northener Nikki Bell joins the boys straight from the IWITOT stage to talk about the power of the Olympic torch, her life as a consultant and how she ended up moving from St Oswalds to the British Heart Foundation for the fish lunches. There’s advice on relationship fundraising, shouting about the work you do from home and how not to get fired by Twitter. Kenneth dreams of being a glitter fairy whilst James is testing out some new material.

Meanwhile Nikki names her favourite leaders in the sector and explains how face to face fundraising lays the foundations for a stellar career before trying out an Essex accent. Everyone agrees we’ve had enough of winners but can’t get enough Pizza Margherita. There’s chat about the IOF Convention, networking events and how many awards make an Award-Winner.

With a guest appearance from Sandra in Accounts and a masterclass in segways, we’re packing for the DMG Roadshow.

"You know what mansplaining is, right?"

In the last of our January episodes the guys are not drinking in a bar joined by the BAFTA-award-winning entrepreneur Roberta Lucca - one of Forbes' top 50 women in tech. Kenneth tries to match up by wearing glasses and James details his new comedy career.

Meanwhile Roberta explains how she came to be running a multi-million dollar company and how she manages to stay focused on her four key priorities. We discuss the key attributes to look for when recruiting a team plus the importance of staying humble and identifying our own weaknesses during the process.

We discover how identifying both co-founders and mentors is a lot like dating - providing you prefer to date very slowly with plenty of online research. There's also talk of superstar DJs, where to find a millennial and the lies they tell on wikipedia.

Finally Roberta reveals her inspirations and how she hopes she hopes to inspire the next generation of entrepreneurs through her new YouTube series Beta Lucca (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeoKaPD7uUWyMZ5i_v16aHg)

We're off to play Fortnite...

"Facebook might die but Instagram will live on."

This week it's the great social media debate. Kenneth and James spend dry January with mystery-shopping digital-experts Bertie and Fliss to discuss the ethics behind some of the biggest platforms and how they have changed into public relations forums.

As well as talking about how social media has changed since it began and whether we should be investing in Facebook as charities and individuals, we also get into the role of consultants, integrating digital into a fundraising strategy, what organisations should be doing today and tomorrow in the digital sphere. There’s a competition to see who has the fastest-signing chief executive and Kenneth learns to doggy-paddle.

And that's all after we hear tales of sneaking in to Pulp gigs through the kitchen, the true identities of Daft Punk and how students fundraise in their underwear. Anyone for a non-alcoholic pale ale?

"I now recognise I had depression then."

Kenneth and James meet confirmed BDOT Mandy Johnson this week to talk all about mental health. We discuss how things have changed in the sector and society, plus what we can do to improve our awareness and response. Mandy describes her own experiences, speaking openly about how she came through and what she has planned next in her stellar career.

It's a more serious episode to what you're used to, as it should be. Yet we do need to get Kenneth a desk assessment and James a sick bucket.

If you feel someone you work with could do with a coffee and a chat about how things are going we recommend you take a look at the excellent resources on the Mind website listed underneath. You can also find more information on the first aid course mentioned by visiting the Mental Health First Aid site. If you just want to talk to someone about the issues raised in this episode contact the Samaritans any time, from any phone on 116 123 or using the links below.

Our thanks to Mandy for her honesty. You can find her on Twitter and her list of Great Charity Speakers.

"Your listeners are better fundraisers."

Kenneth and James head back to old haunts this week and bump in to Rob Woods for a chat through his latest blog post on incredible Captains.

Rob describes the surprising traits which make them so successful plus how to harness the power of a raised eyebrow, perfect listening and stealing other people's ideas. The guys learn about the phenomenon of social loafing, fighting your ego when answering questions and identifying as an ugly duckling. Talking of whom, Kenneth tries not to talk during meetings and James seeks help for his Sunday-League Team.

This packed episode also features references to Liz Tait, Charles Pegram, Joe Jenkins and surprisingly, John Wayne. We also discover how to secure free bottles of wine in New York and what it takes to drink 56 coffees in a week.

"Our School Dads group has its own logo."

The boys meet up for the Do More Good 2019 Strategy Day in Borough. They compare tales from curry nights, run through what's trending on Twitter and discuss the episodes we've released this year. Kenneth is keeping a keen eye on other podcasts in the sector and gets sentimental about the first year of Do More Good. James is looking forward to a week of Christmas Parties and is thankful he no longer has to catch the B13 home from Bexleyheath.

The boys head to the world's tidiest disaster zone as they interview Peter Lewis, Chief Executive of the Institute of Fundraising in their recently fire-and-flood-ravaged office in Westminster.

Despite a challenging couple of weeks and a broken coffee machine, nothing stops Peter from pursuing equality, diversity and inclusion in the sector as they discuss The Change Collective - a new campaign to ensure everyone sees fundraising as a career they can thrive in.

There are million-pound cheques on offer, an invite to a silent disco and more from the very worthy Do More Good podcast this week.

Whether you like it or not, plastic (and the huge amounts of it we are producing) is going to affect the causes you work for or care about in some way. As a sector we're not great at how we deal with it so we went in search of a couple of people who were leading the way. Hanging out at Somerset House we stumbled across Trewin, CEO of environmental charity Hubbub who are winning awards for their work. Then we ran up to the Serpentine to meet with Persephone and Kristen from the Royal Parks who explained how they reduced their impact on the environment at the Half Marathon this year.

In our chats we discovered some simple ways you can change your behaviour and that of others through mind-tricks, gamification, facilitation and the humble rubbish bin. We also discover how to carry water in seaweed and who the best footballer in the world is. I know, I know, we're good to you...

The pod is missing Kenneth this week as James goes solo on a recording live at the IOF Convention. Fortunately Sandy is on hand to keep things professional and the duo are joined between sessions by Diveesha, Libby, Nina and Helen. Hecklers want to know where all the good fundraisers go, we discuss what we can learn from Uber, how to negotiate with your trousers on and we're reminded to always check the details when booked for a Hindu temple.

Recorded on the Friday before the Bank Holiday, the boys discuss the arrival of GDPR - but it isn't all fun - they also work through James' terrible week, a Blue Peter awakening and the demand for DMG merch. Fortunately (confirmed BDIF) Lucy Gower turns up to provide value on innovation, confidence and her predictions for how integrated both should become. Plus advice on not staying in your job for 18 months. Thought-Leader Kenneth blows our minds with the importance of sleep and then heads of on holiday before Gary the Dog completely steals the show.

"If money were no object, I'd have a personal assistant"

We’re checking in after a couple of great episodes, reflecting on Alex and Karen whilst also sharing a couple of secrets from behind the scenes at Do More Good HQ.

We’re transported back to car journeys in the eighties by the background music before James makes his second pitch for a ban on tequila. We talk through the big challenge facing Karen at Drinkaware in creating lasting societal change, but perhaps the harder task of Kenneth finding a willing PA.

There are thoughts on Alex’s specialism being her superpower before we delve into the power of the sticker, gym workouts and social shout-outs in the mailbags.

This week Kenneth and James leave Kings Cross and venture up to Angel to record from the Pearl & Feather public house. After a few busy weeks of events the boys decide to explore what makes a good supporter journey and share some of their experience. Also, Kenneth enjoys wearing a shell-suit far too much, James discusses creating short videos with an interesting selection of words and they look ahead to the Easter break.

"Prisons are like a miniature universe"

This week we’re joined by the CEO of Drinkaware, Karen Tyrell, to talk through her career - from cell rooms to the boardroom. We get into society’s complicated relationship with alcohol and managing the organisation’s relationship with big business.

We kick off this week by revealing the fastest parkruns in the country, braving outdoor swimming and diving into a category A prison straight out of university. Karen shares the stories from the front line which led to a passion for supporting people. We find out what kind of chief executive she is, the importance of a strong foundation and how she plans to achieve massive societal change. James makes an unsuccessful pitch to ban tequila, Karen talks seatbelts and Kenneth wants to know how to remain independent.

Pour yourself a low-alcohol beer, if they haven’t already sold out, and hear how Drinkaware can improve the school run.

"Everyone doing really well, invests in email"

Bringing her Geordie-South-African accent to the show is Alex Fearon, the third sector’s email guru.

She puts up with some chat about Kenneth’s new role and politely doesn’t mention that James has come dressed as a 20-year-old pop star before delving into the dark arts of email. We hear about starting out as a freelancer, how to get jobs done now-now, why we should (but don’t) ignore the vanity metrics, delegating the jobs we don’t like and turning down songs during the rude bits. There’s a discussion on where to find nice people, pivoting personal to business accounts and replicating the 2005 PTA Newsletter.

Stick an emoji in your subject line, check out dark mode before pressing send, and join us for a chat about the premature suggestion that email is dead.

"Eau du Podcast."

The bromance vehicle is back on track with a teaser episode for another run of shows. The boys return to Chapter 72 on Bermondsey Street - face to face for the first time in years. After a recharge of the batteries we cover a Wayne Murray love-in, the death of social media, expensive wrapping paper and a plea for content. We review our appearance on Vic Turnbull's youtube channel, offer prizes and make a solemn promise to share more episodes in the coming weeks before the sugar rush from one too many Appeltisers kicks in.

"We were laying the track in front of the train."

It’s a hundred days without a drink for Kenneth as he describes ordering tea in the pub and his fears for how this might affect the show.

We are joined on this seminal night by Wayne Murray, the founder of Humanity Squared, the aspiring human and father focused on innovation, transformation and human-centred strategy to drive positive change. We talk lived experience, making it up as you go, quitting jobs in lockdown and the longest pier on the world. Wayne shares his passion for getting the experts into the room, one-page strategies and how he refuses to work with arseholes - which sounds like an endorsement for the show.

"Just being here tonight is an unbelievable experience”

For the hundredth episode we returned to our very first recording - a pub near the JustGiving Awards in 2017. We've upgraded for 2022 with a backstage pass and slightly better equipment than the phone and headphone cable we recorded on five years ago. No upgrade on the hosts I'm afraid.

We took the opportunity to speak with Sophie Grieg - Event Maestro (8:00mins); Ryan, Scott and Adam Thomas - Award Presenters (10:30mins); Max Woosey - Young Fundraiser of the Year (15:30mins); Lucy Squance - Official DMG Cheerleader (18mins); Jamie Laing - Award Presenter (21:30); Three Dads Walking - Fundraising Team of the Year (22:45mins); Gina Almond,The Brain Tumour Charity - Charity Of The Year (35mins); Deborah James Tribute - Special Recognition Award (36:30mins); Jordan North and Vick Hope - Event Hosts (41:30mins); Saffron Barker - Award Presenter and Pasodoble expert (48:25mins); Tony Banks and Becky Francis - Toastmasters (52:30mins).

"I am the least likely tech CEO you may come across."

Kenneth returns from a Table Tennis training camp for haloween as we dig up the Foreman Family history. Then three guests arrive who have a trick or two and treat us with a talk about mentoring and how it can be used to build confidence.

We speak to Dave Evans, the founder and CEO of the social enterprise OKO which is a social enterprise focused on creating opportunities for young adults. He tells us about how his experience growing up formed an aim of providing two million youngsters with mentors. To show how his programme works we also have James and Adarsh to talk through their experiences with OKO, unconventional interview technique, software robotics, getting emotional, getting sacked and top tips for implementing Oracle’s advanced procurement suite.

"You don't operate as a company in a bubble."

A high-brow start to the show this week with a mention on PMQs before we dive into CSR, ESG and DB. Then it's Downing Street to Guatemala, making good decisions and learning on the job. 

We're joined by Kerry McNally, Group Head of Communities at Flutter Entertainment, to talk through what Corporate Social Responsibility or Environment Social and Governance means in the corporate world. Kerry explains how she didn't take a typical career path, mobilising 10,000 people and achieving the dream of exponential impact. We discuss investing in relationships, three-pint focus groups and cringing at puns (but using them anyway). 

Kenneth ends by penning a litter-based love-letter to Ron before James get's back to Parent's Evening.

"Change starts at the top"

Steve Martin joins us for a Spotlight episode focused on Agile this week and how it's his utopian world of work. We all want to become a Scrum Master, we hear about the importance of culture throughout this approach, why we're working in an outdated fashion from two centuries ago and whether Kenneth will ever get close to his parkrun PB.

"The younger generation will not accept this."

In this episode we talk to Eugenie Harvey, the Chief Executive of The Funding Network, a London-based charity that connects small non-profits and donors. We start with Eugenie's ill-fated comedy career before a parkrun love in and a discussion on Australian bushfires, the usual intro.

Eugenie tells us about moving to London and how that involved leaving her friends behind and earning less money. Then there's how she changed the world for a fiver, a famous bag and the power of collective giving. We get a seven-minute pitch, the differences in how we give around the world and an embarrassment about wealth. Kenneth has a new haircut to go with his new job and James has lost his voice.

This week on the podcast we’re joined by two guests representing the Raheem Sterling Foundation a charity that envisions a world where young people will always have the support they need in the pursuit of improving their opportunities, their future careers, and their quality of life.

We start though, with the genesis of the Kenneth’s clothes line and James’ eyewear collection. We all look on enviously as we hear about the Foreman household Air Conditioning dynasty before we hear about Clive breaking free from the motor trade and entering the world of fostering and mentoring. There’s the importance of a cheese sandwich and we give up on American Football. Chris describes the great 21st birthday hustle, surviving school and the key to job interviews.

We hear all about the foundation and its aims, giving the right message to the younger generation, giving opportunities and ensuring inclusion.

"Super, crazy-professional, great humans"

In the last five years, our guest has lived in mainland Greece, Serbia, and Bosnia and the refugee hotspot of the Greek Island Samos. To date, the organisation she founded has placed over 3,000 volunteers with their partners. Currently, supporting more than fifty charities who provide aid, healthcare, education, skills workshops and other vital services to the tens of thousands of refugees who live in informal settlements across Europe's migratory route.

Kenneth admits to hampering the education of a generation of children in Laos whilst James shows off his box-fresh passport. We talk wild swimming and singing competitions before our guest brings her high-risk, impulsive attitude to the conversation. There’s a chat about breaking into the sector, accepting help whenever it’s offered and controlling workaholic tendencies by simply becoming a parent. We discuss the pattern of support following any large-scale disaster and how important it is for someone to bring order to the chaos. The generosity of those with very little is showcased, we move back in with Mum and manage to fit everything into five minutes before our next meeting.

"Nobody really knows what they're talking about and neither do I."

Our guest this week co-founded The Turner Kirk Trust in 2007 and since then has granted over £7million to charitable causes across the UK and the developing world. His achievements include a PhD in General Relativity, chairing numerous businesses and launching the UK’s first algo-hedge fund. The perfect match for your host’s combined four GCSEs, 400m swimming certificate and a rather vague Culinary Skills badge from Beavers.

We kick off with Kenneth’s employment reveal, and his plans to go full-time on the podcast between dog walks and the driving range. James wants to spend a million on paper clips and betrays a fondness for tie pins. From then it’s all business we meet the self-proclaimed ‘smuggest man in town’ fresh from his win at Midnight Madness. He tells us about growing up in an infamous location, a lifetime love of computing and embracing his inner-geek.

Kenneth ruthlessly sacks Dan from the Pub Quiz Team live on air, we ponder buying a boat and agree on the concept for a new airport-bookshop business title. There’s the importance of good fortune, embracing experimentation and how we face government-sized problems in the third-sector before we discover how to run a hedge fund, form some long-term strategic goals and find that the answer is probably Cat.

"I know you're on holiday, but you need to hear this."

Our third episode from the Scottish Fundraising Conference is a sit down with crypto enthusiasts Nicola Gunn and David Mitchell. The duo oversaw a speculative investment before it rained cats and dogs in income from crypto currency communities keen to support their work.

We talk about the pressure of headlining the conference, fostering a culture of innovation, the tip-off which sparked their adventure and the rabbithole they delved into on Twitter. There's the knowledge you need to start out, the basics of decentralised finance and how it's still all about relationships. Our guests get excited by NFTs, the possibilities for the future and working in a volatile market whilst James manages not to say anything too stupid for nearly half an hour.
