The future of our industry will be shaped by the people who choose impact over indifference.
Next week, we’re launching the Empower Podcast in partnership with the Empower Community. It is a new podcast series dedicated to the leaders driving real, measurable change across media, marketing and business, and proving that impact is not a side project. It is a growth strategy.
Hosted by Louise Watson and Kate Chaundy, the Empower Podcast creates space for honest conversations with people who are building culture with purpose and turning values into performance.
What the Empower Podcast is about
Each episode spotlights leaders who are doing more than talking about change. These are people actively shaping inclusive leadership, community-led brands and businesses designed for long-term value.
Recorded both in studio and live from the industry moments that matter most, the Empower Podcast captures the conversations you do not always hear on stage. The decisions behind the scenes. The trade-offs. The moments that define culture and direction.
Launch episodes
We’re kicking things off with two leaders whose influence spans creativity, media and industry leadership:
- Simon Cook, Chief Executive Officer, Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity
- Karen Stacey, Chief Executive Officer, Digital Cinema Media and Co-Founder of Empower
Together, they share candid perspectives on leadership, responsibility and the role businesses play in shaping the industry around them.
With thanks
A huge thank you to Michaela Hallam, Richard Blake and Clara Kavanagh at Fresh Air for supporting the production of the podcast.
