About this podcast
Powered by Purpose explores the lives of people who are driven by a deep sense of purpose and need to make a real difference in the world. The conversations — hosted by renowned BBC journalist Simon Mundie — take us from Uganda to Saudi Arabia and from London to the USA. As we listen in to their personal stories of resilience and resourcefulness, we find out how they use that energy to wake up every day looking to be a force for good. In this series, we find out what it's like navigating the world through the eyes of a blind person and follow parents as they steer their children over some of life's invisible hurdles. We hear what it means to start a business that allows you to buy a goat and feed your family, we learn the value of finessing your negotiation skills growing up around the dinner table, and understand the power of rethinking a recruitment process to find some of the most creative people who might otherwise have slipped through the net. P&G started this podcast series looking to speak to some of our fantastic people who work on household names like Tide, Pampers and Gillette — and what quickly becomes clear is that P&G is about far more than just business — it is about being powered by purpose.
