About this listen
In this episode, Matthew Radley and Sophie Taylor sit down with Linda Sleath, experienced Chair and Non-Executive Director, for a frank conversation about what really drives people to join the boardroom. Together, they unpack the question every aspiring NED should face: Why do you really want the role? Is it about status - or a genuine desire to add value?
Linda and Matthew explore the realities behind the prestige: the accountability, the pressure, and the purpose that define effective leadership at the top. Through moments of stretch, courage, and reflection, they reveal the human side of board-level influence. The truths that never make it into the governance papers.
This episode is a must-listen for current and aspiring board members ready to challenge their own motivations and redefine what impact really means.
