Donna Ockenden is a former clinical midwife who led the Ockenden Review which revealed, at the time, the biggest maternity scandal in NHS history. Published in 2022, the review highlighted serious failings in maternity care at the Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust which contributed to the deaths of more than 200 babies and nine mothers.Donna grew up in the village of Aberaman in the Welsh Valleys. She experienced a complicated childhood which included a period living in a homeless shelter along with her mother and four siblings.

Ruth Morse, Chief Executive of the Well Foundation, recentlyjoined Purposely to share her personal and professional journey, as well as the vital work her organisation does to support healthcare across Auckland's North Shore and Waitākere regions.The Well Foundation is dedicated to improving healthoutcomes for over 580,000 people—the population served by the Waitematā District Health Board (DHB), New Zealand's largest. The Foundation exists to raise additional funds for high-priority projects and initiatives that falloutside the scope of government funding. Its mission? To enhance patient care, improve health outcomes, and help deliver world-class healthcare for the community. Every dollar donated is carefully allocated to agreed initiatives, ensuring it's used where it's needed most and kept entirely separate from the DHB's core government funding.During her interview, Ruth highlighted the criticalimportance of community support, saying, “We're here to bridge the gap—to make a tangible difference in people's healthcare experiences.” This could involve anything from purchasing state-of-the-art medical equipment to fundinginitiatives that improve patient comfort and wellbeing.Ruth's personal story is as compelling as the Foundation'smission. Having qualified and briefly worked as a midwife, she soon transitioned into roles in management and communications. Her husband jokingly refers to her career pivot as her “midwife crisis.” After practising midwiferyfor a short time, Ruth moved into communications, marketing, fundraising, and events—eventually discovering her passion for leadership within the charitable sector. Today, she combines her professional expertise and deep sense ofpurpose to guide the Well Foundation towards meaningful and measurable impact in Auckland's healthcare landscape.As a parent, Ruth also juggles the demands of herprofessional role with family life. Originally from the UK, her husband's roots mean the family regularly travels back to England to stay connected with loved ones. Her life, much like her work, is a delicate balance of purpose, passion,and connection.The Well Foundation plays a crucial role in helping theWaitematā DHB realise its vision of “best care for everyone.” With more than 30 community healthcare sites and two major hospitals under its umbrella, the DHB depends on the Foundation's ability to harness community generosity. Recent projects have included equipping hospitals with new technologies and funding initiatives that directly enhance patient experience.Ruth's leadership at the Well Foundation is grounded in agenuine commitment to creating positive change. Whether it's fundraising, building partnerships, or inspiring a shared sense of purpose, her approach is both pragmatic and deeply human. As Ruth puts it, “At the end of the day, it'sabout people helping people.”To hear more from Ruth Morse and learn about the impactfulwork of the Well Foundation, listen to the full interview at www.purposelypodcast.com.

De nieuwe CEO van Intel, Lip-Bu-Tan, gaat het management-team van Intel herstructureren. De belangrijkste chipteams gaan direct rapporteren aan de CEO, zodat de Tan meer zicht krijgt op de problemen in het bedrijf. Bovendien wordt er een nieuwe CTO aangesteld, die ook de leiding over AI krijgt. Tan trekt de macht naar zich toe en laat de teams voor AI-chips, PC-chips en datacenters direct aan hemzelf rapporteren. De huidige Chief Executive of Intel Products, Michelle Johnston Holthaus, krijgt andere verantwoordelijkheden. In een interne memo schrijft Tan dat hij 'zijn eigen mouwen wil opstropen' en zelf wil zien wat er nodig is om de teams te versterken. Greg Lavender stopt als CTO bij Intel en gaat met pensioen. Hij wordt opgevolgd door Schain Katti, die tevens de rol als AI-baas op zich zal nemen. Katti is onder andere hoogleraar informatica bij Staford University en is een belangrijke naam in het AI-veld. Met de reorganisatie van het managementteam hoopt de nieuwe CEO kortere lijntjes te creeëren en snel veranderingen te kunnen doorvoeren die nodig zijn. Afgelopen maand begon Tan als CEO, waarin hij Pat Gelsinger opvolgde die het niet voor elkaar kreeg om Intel weer op de juiste koers te krijgen.

In the new episode of Radical Reformers, Andrew Laird welcomes Graeme Duncan, Chief Executive of Right to Succeed, a charity that supports communities in areas of high deprivation to work collectively and give children and young people the best start in life. In this discussion, Graeme and Andrew discuss the transformative power of building community agency. Graeme notes that the biggest challenge facing our communities isn't just the individual issues like poverty, education, or health - but the lack of control people have in defining their own needs and solutions. True change comes from a collective approach, where everyone works together, rather than top-down or bottom-up methods. Graeme offers insights into how Right to Succeed engages with different levels of administration, from individual councils to the Liverpool City Region and how this approach has led to significant savings and better outcomes for communities. Allowing communities to take ownership, builds trust and collaborative solutions that are hard to beat. As Graeme says, if a community chooses an intervention – they will make it succeed.

Development finance is no longer just about aid. It's about power, priorities, and who gets to decide.For decades, institutions like the World Bank and IMF have set the agenda, with high-income countries holding the reins. But a shift is underway. Southern-led multilateral development banks (MDBs) – where borrowing nations are also the majority shareholders – are rewriting the rules.These banks, like CAF (Development Bank of Latin America) and the Trade and Development Bank (TDB) Group, bring something different to the table: speed, flexibility, and a laser focus on local needs. But they also face hurdles: higher borrowing costs, limited global visibility, and the challenge of financing a just climate transition in economies still grappling with poverty.With the Spring Meetings taking place later this month, this episode dives into the rise of these institutions. Are they the future of development finance? Can they complement – or even challenge – traditional MDBs? And what reforms are needed to unlock their full potential?GuestsSara Pantuliano (host), Chief Executive, ODI GlobalAlejandra Botero, Director of Strategy and Development, CAFChris Humphrey, Senior Research Associate, ODI GlobalAdmassu Tadesse, Group President and Managing Director, TDB GroupRelated resourcesODI Global resources on multilateral development banksSouthern-led multilateral channels for climate finance (Working paper, ODI Global)What makes an MDB an MDB?

This was, you know, I've just been putting the finishing touches to a book called the Insight Leader's Playbook, and I found myself finishing the book by making reference to what's a bit of a bugbear of mine.” (18.42)“The key is in the small steps that you can do for yourself, specifically outside of work.

In this episode, the second of our greenwashing mini-series we chat to Guy Parker, Chief Executive of the UK's Advertising Standards Authority (ASA), about green claims and the role of responsible advertising in sustainability. Guy explains that the ASA's mission is to, “make sure that ads are legal, decent, honest and truthful. We care about ads not misleading people, not harming them, not offending them and being socially responsible.” Guy highlights that with rising concerns about climate change, the ASA is focused on environmental claims balancing the need for businesses to communicate sustainability efforts without misleading consumers. We discuss the line between greenwashing (exaggerated or false claims) and greenhushing (staying silent due to fear of backlash), and how Marketers can absolutely tread the middle ground between the two. Guy emphasises how businesses should communicate sustainability progress— modestly and precisely, “being a bit more modest in the claims and being a bit more kind of real world in terms of what this means for your customers and your prospective customers, can actually go a very long way.” Focus should be on tangible, near-term actions rather than distant net-zero targets. Most greenwashing isn't intentional - it stems from lack of education and understanding. Guy points out that Marketers must know the rules and follow the guidance, (ASA's codes, CMA's Green Claims Code), collaborate cross-functionally with sustainability teams to ensure accuracy and make use of the breadth of ASA resources (rulings, guidance, and free training), to avoid pitfalls. There is information and knowledge out there for everyone and it's all very accessible. Guy's message is clear, businesses must keep talking about sustainability, but do so, responsibly. Tune in as we talk to Guy about: The green claims and advertising landscape. The need for organisations to be transparent and share their sustainability journeys. Why less is more when it comes to green claims - specific, evidence-backed claims are safer. Keep communicating, silence helps no one - we need to talk about it to drive change. Where greenwashing complaints can come from and, how to make a complaint. Why strategies and processes are needed. What resources and guidance are available to support Marketers and organisations considering making green claims.   For resources check out the ASA's CAP Advertising Guidance, their training and their recent rulings - all of which can be found here. And, if you're looking to upskill your team with the green claims landscape - be sure to check out our 3 hour Greenwashing 101 short training course via our Sustainable Marketing Training Hub.
