Brian chats with diversity, equity, and inclusion trailblazer Ken Janssens. During his 25-year-long career at JPMorgan Chase, Ken co-founded and chaired the company's LGBTQ+ Executive Council, championing diversity and inclusivity at the highest levels. He's also the former Board Chair for leading LGBTQ+ Workplace Inclusion non-profit Out & Equal. On the episode, Ken discusses his new venture, Windō, which aims to make corporate sustainability transparent and to connect young people with employers that share their values. He also shares his journey from activist leader to visionary entrepreneur and touts why establishing a clear mission and vision makes financial sense for companies. Episode Highlights Mission-driven businesses place purpose at their core. Ken defines a mission-driven business as one that puts purpose at its core. He also pointed out that purpose is especially important to Gen Z employees, who are the first generation to place purpose over pay when finding an employer. “Whilst a lot of companies have adopted purpose statements, there are many that still haven't,” Ken said. “Purpose can rally an entire organization around something that is usually quite simple but very powerful.” Keep it simple. Ken co-founded Windō to connect young talent with value-aligned employers. Having such a simple mission statement has made it easy for him to recall and ensure his daily decisions are grounded in the company's purpose. “Our mission just rolls off the tongue, but obviously, you don't just come up with that willy nilly,” he said. “You really think about it, but then it's very clear. It grounds us and makes it easy to talk about what we're about in one simple sentence.” Use data to drive diversity. While Windō's data focuses on large companies, Ken says that small business owners can still take inspiration from some of the top performers. For instance, a company of any size can implement self-ID, which allows employees to disclose their demographic information to break down large data sets by diverse groups. Companies can then use the self-ID data to measure how employee satisfaction varies among different groups of people and, ideally, use the resulting awareness to improve year over year. “I think every company is aiming for belonging, and that's difficult to measure,“ Ken said. “This is a great way of doing that. You ask employees different kinds of questions and get the results by a diverse group, and you don't guard the results as a secret when there's work to do.” Transparency builds trust. The ultimate goal of sustainability reports is to build trust, according to Ken. However, you can't have trust without transparency, commitment, and accountability. He also emphasized that potential employees know that increasing workplace diversity can be challenging and that progress isn't always linear.   “Gen Z is okay with the numbers being low, but they want to see progress,” Ken said. “Moving the dial is hard, and sometimes you have a dip. It's okay if they're still in the grand scheme making progress.” Resources + Links The Big Leap: Conquer Your Hidden Fear and Take Life to the Next Level by Gay Hendricks The Activist Leader: A New Mindset for Doing Business by Lucy Parker and Jon Miller Ken Janssens: LinkedIn Windō: Website, LinkedIn Brian Thompson Financial: Website, Newsletter, Podcast Follow Brian Thompson Online: Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, X, Forbes About Brian and the Mission Driven Business Podcast Brian Thompson, JD/CFP, is a tax attorney and certified financial planner who specializes in providing comprehensive financial planning to LGBTQ+ entrepreneurs who run mission-driven businesses.

Business may be the most potent force in the world, perhaps more poweful than government. The largest corporations—only 20 companies— are responsible for one-third of carbon emissions, and some firms carry more economic heft than many nations. For example, Apple earned $99 billion in net income in 2022, and if Apple were a nation, it would rank 67th in the world if compared to the GDP of other countries. The Climate Crisis and its related food, water, and immigration impacts present the most significant challenge business has ever faced. Can business deliver a better world and equitable society while avoiding a global economic collapse? The Activist Leader: A New Mindset for Doing Business, a new book by our guests Jon Miller and Lucy Parker, reports that business has the tools. Now, the will to lead is required.Lucy and Jon outline a simple challenge for leaders and people who want to become business leaders: they must adopt a new mindset and the ability to think like an activist about the role a business plays in the world. That's a tall order in a fractured political environment in which critics from the extremes of the political spectrum monitor every word for controversy. It takes courage to be an activist leader, and that's a topic worth exploring in a world that needs businesses to step up to their responsibility for the system that produced climate change. You can find The Activist Leader: A New Mindset for Doing Business at Amazon, Powell's Books, and local bookstores.

In this episode, we are joined by our very own three wise women — the Foundation's founder and chair of trustees, Ellen MacArthur, Doughnut Economics author and co-founder of the Doughnut Economics Action Lab, Kate Raworth, and the co-founder of Biomimicry 3.8, the world's first bio-inspired consultancy, Janine Benyus. This is first in a series of podcast episodes recorded at Summit 22 — the Ellen MacArthur Foundation's flagship annual event — which brought together business leaders, policymakers, innovators, and global changemakers to explore how we can redesign our economy so that it regenerates, rather than destroys, the natural world. In an inspiring conversation facilitated by Brunswick Group senior partner, Lucy Parker, Ellen, Kate, and Janine discuss, in Kate's words, the 'profound connections' between the circular economy, biomimicry, and her own doughnut economic model. Together, they explored the ways in which the three approaches offer a vision of a world that works for all — one that requires a mindset shift, from our current take, make, waste economy to one in which waste is eliminated, products and materials are circulated, and nature is regenerated. An economy that recognises that doing less harm simply isn't good enough, that we must work together to create solutions that actively improve the world we live in.–Watch this and other sessions from Summit 22Learn more about the circular economy and the Ellen MacArthur FoundationFind out more about biomimicry and the work of Janine BenyusDiscover more about Doughnut Economics and the work of Kate Raworth–Follow us on social media:LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram | TikTok | Facebook

A new promotional campaign, designed to drive purchases of British leeks has recently been launched to great industry applaud. It intends to build on the gains seen during the pandemic, which saw sale volumes up by nearly 9% in 2021. The initiative is backed by a group of sixteen leek growers and seed companies. This year, the Leek Growers Association has partnered with popular vegan social influencer and food writer Lucy Parker, who posts as @lucy_and_lentils and has over 168,000 followers on Instagram. Her easy to prepare, accessible recipes and extensive reach across a wide range of social media channels, will help the campaign reach and engage with younger audiences. In addition to social media, a comprehensive media relations PR campaign, targeting national and regional consumer media and news channels is to be rolled out. Hortnews.com quoted Tim Casey, Leek Growers Association Chairman, as saying: “Increasingly consumers are using social media as a resource for information on food, nutrition and recipes. In fact, recent research* showed that 21% of Britons use Instagram for recipes ideas, four in ten use social media videos to follow a recipe and 26% follow foodie social influencers.” On the broadcast will be: Tim Casey. Leek Grower - Bomber County Produce and Chairman of the Leek Growers Association. Lucy Parks, Lucy and Lentils. @LucyandLentils - Plant based food blogger.  Way back before it was cool Lucy became vegetarian when the word vegan was but a faint whisper and the most exciting thing to hit the market was Linda McCartney veggie sausages!  Going to university made it abundantly clear she was also a terrible cook. But with a mission to be a little more self-sufficient she turned to social media for guidance. This is where Lucy and Lentils was 'born'. So what started as a hobby for Lucy has now become her job! Splitting her time between sponsored work on Instagram, food photography for brands and independents in Nottingham as well as recipe creating for similar start-up companies.

On this episode of SPS, Pamela and Sophia discuss the Biden bungle of the Afghanistan withdrawal and the responses by the “Left,” including Tariq Ali for the New Left Review and Branko Marcetic for Jacobin. SPS European Correspondent Andreas interviews Eduardo Maura, from the Spanish party Podemos, and asks him to reflect on his political trajectory, from his work in the Indignados -- the Spanish anti-austerity movement -- to Podemos in government, to the party's recent electoral defeats. In the last segment, Platypus president Efraim interviews Mike Watson, a UK born art & media theorist, and author of The Memeing of Mark Fisher: How the Frankfurt School Foresaw Capitalist Realism and What To Do About It, released by Zero Books in 2021. They discuss the different responses to the New Left by Adorno and Marcuse and the conditions of possibility for political consciousness in an administered society.

Narrator Billie Fulford-Brown enlivens Lucy Parker's start to her new contemporary romance series featuring those who are “Palace Insiders.” Host Jo Reed and AudioFile's Emily Connelly discuss the hilarious, sweet, and moving audiobook about rival bakers-turned-lovers. Four years earlier, Sylvie Fairchild was a contestant on Operation Cake and lost after a disastrous unicorn cake explosion glitter-bombed one of the judges, the stern Dominic De Vere. Fortunately, she was able to launch a successful baking business--one that just so happens to be across the street from Dominic's. The two are contenders for a royal bid, and they slowly discover there is more to the other than meets the eye. Fulford-Brown captures Sylvie's sparkly spirit and Dominic's icy demeanor, making for a delightful listen. Read the full review of the audiobook on AudioFile's website. Published by Harper Audio.

According to a new survey from US News & World Report, there's a whole lot of people who say they've either been a victim of financial infidelity or committed it. This could be something like finding a credit card or bank account you didn't know about, lying about a debt or a source of income, or making an expensive purchase without telling your partner. The majority of people who were surveyed say that financial infidelity is as bad as physical or sexual infidelity. Today on KYW Newsradio In Depth, Beverly Harzog, credit card expert at US News & World Report joins the podcast to talk about what the survey found out about the ways we cheat, financially. Then Dr. Lucy Parker, a counselor and educator and Assistant Professor at LaSalle University joins the show to break down what we know about why people commit financial infidelity and the next steps to recover and heal when it happens in your relationship.

Billie Fulford-Brown narrates this enemies-to-lovers romance that is above all an ode to skilled professionals doing their jobs amazingly well.

Set in London, the story centers on two competitive television hosts, Sabrina and Nick, who have to combine their efforts to help revive their station’s failing morning show—or lose their jobs.
