In this episode I talk to Sarah Beale who is CEO of the accountancy qualification AAT (the Association of Accountancy Technicians).

We discuss what it means to be a leader, workplace culture, inclusion and diversity and, as usual, the future of the accountancy industry.

Deborah has over two decades of board level leadership, chairing audit committees for many notable organisations.

In 2016 she founded Lean In UK Network - growing from six women to over 8,000.

She is also a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales and became the first black person to chair the London association in its 152 year history.

Camilla Rogers is the Founder of Fifty50 Coaching which partners with organisations wanting to invest in their people and their mental health in the same way they do physical health. Fifty50 blends high-performance personal coaching with a wellbeing focus and therapeutic touch.

We chat about why Camilla founded Fifty50 (in part managing a chronic illness alongside a demanding corporate role), how she manages her wellbeing now, and her life as an entrepreneur.
