Leadership can be a lonely affair. Values held by an individual might not align exactly with the needs of an organisation, and no matter the determination, implementing meaningful changes can feel like swimming against the tide. But the process can be easier when we have a third party, or a mentor, from whom we can seek support and advice, and who can offer guidance on our decision making.
In this episode of Forward Vision we speak to Liam Black, the ‘gloves off mentor’, author of ‘How to Lead with Purpose’. This is a wide ranging conversation that offers bitesize tips on how to become more effective as a leader, what ‘purpose’ really means, and why a good mentor provides clarity and supports the courage to execute ambitious goals.

Bridging the Inclusion Gap
What are the secrets to making our organisations’ inclusivity programmes work? And how do we ensure we don’t end up in the trap of creating negative feelings towards the diversity agenda?
Joining Matthew today is Suzy Levy, social change specialist and author of ‘Mind the Inclusion Gap: How Allies can Bridge the Divide Between Talking Diversity and Taking Action’. We discover why just ‘being nice’ doesn’t work, how we can move on from the poorly designed EDI (Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion) programmes of the past, and why it’s important that when we are creating safer spaces for one group of people we don’t preclude the needs of another.

Do Identity Politics Work?
Have identity politics become problematic? Do they help or hinder the progressive project? Over the past decade, we’ve seen an explosion of radical identity politics that have often created stark polarisation, with excesses that have been seized upon by its biggest critics. So how do we move the conversation forward so that societies can create further equality? Joining Matthew on this week’s Forward Vision is academic and political scientist, Yascha Mounk. Discussing his new book, ’The Identity Trap’, Yascha traces the history of how radical identity politics have taken hold, the risks that occur when ideas behind our identities become too simplified, and what alternative liberal perspectives can help us live up to our universal values.
'The Identity Trap: A Story of Ideas and Power in Our Time' is available now: https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/456408/the-identity-trap-by-mounk-yascha/9780241638293 (https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/456408/the-identity-trap-by-mounk-yascha/9780241638293)
