Leadership 20502 Mar 2023

Pinky Lilani, Women of the Future

In this episode Andrew talks to Pinky Lilani, food guru, entrepreneur and champion of women in business, about why kindness is power.

“I like to make connections, make a difference to people’s lives without them even asking. Leaders must do things without people asking.”

Leadership is undergoing a profound revolution - those who show empathy and lead on social issues will thrive in the years ahead. And in this series you’ll meet global leaders who are showing the way.

Pinky Lilani started her professional life as a self-taught chef and author. Today she’s at the helm of a global network of women leaders.

Recognising and developing human potential is her super power. She is the founder and chair of a number of awards recognising influential women, including the annual Women of the Future Awards and the Asian Women of Achievement Awards. And in 2015 she was awarded a CBE for services to women in business.

In her conversation with Andrew she shares her insights into leadership - including why kindness is critical to business success and how to meaningfully improve diversity in an organisation.

This episode was recorded in May 2022.

Dr Andrew White, Senior Fellow of Management Practice, Saïd Business School, University of Oxford.
