  • Leadership Under Fire: Values, Belonging and Boardroom Decisions

    Leadership Under Fire: Values, Belonging and Boardroom Decisions
    2026/06/17
    The real test of leadership is not when everyone agrees with you. It is when your values are challenged, your corporate decision-making skills are scrutinised, and standing by your principles comes at a personal cost. In this episode, Erika Eliasson-Norris, CEO of Beyond Governance, speaks with Professor Tariq Modood MBE, one of Britain's leading thinkers on multiculturalism, identity, citizenship and belonging. This episode is one of those executive interviews that doubles as a masterclass in business resilience: real governance lessons on leading through scrutiny, division and company culture change. For more than three decades, Tariq has shaped national conversations on diversity, inclusion and social cohesion, helping policymakers, institutions and leaders navigate some of society's most complex and often contentious issues. [More information on Tariq below.] Together, Erika and Tariq explore what leadership looks like when navigating competing perspectives, public scrutiny and cultural change. They discuss the role of values in leadership decisions, the importance of dialogue over division, and why organisations must create environments where people feel heard without losing clarity of purpose. What you'll find in this episode of Grit in the Boardroom: Why standing by your values can sometimes come at a personal and professional cost. How leadership decisions are shaped by identity, belonging and lived experience. Why dialogue, persuasion and consensus-building are often more effective than confrontation. The risks of neutrality when leaders and boards face difficult or controversial issues. How organisations can balance diversity of viewpoints while remaining true to their values. Why company culture can act as an early warning system for corporate governance and leadership challenges. How leaders can remain calm, credible and effective under pressure. The impact of social media on public discourse, organisational culture and leadership. Why self-congratulation can create blind spots that limit organisational learning and growth. Professor Tariq Modood MBE is a renowned sociologist, public intellectual and leading authority on multiculturalism, citizenship and national identity. As the founding Director of the Centre for the Study of Ethnicity and Citizenship at the University of Bristol, his work has influenced public policy, academic thinking and national debate for more than thirty years. Drawing on his personal experiences as an immigrant, academic and commentator, Tariq offers a thoughtful perspective on leadership, resilience and the challenges of building inclusive organisations in increasingly complex and polarised environments. His work continues to shape conversations around identity, belonging, governance and social cohesion both in the UK and internationally. — Grit in the Boardroom is a bi-weekly podcast where Erika Eliasson-Norris sits down with the best in business for executive interviews.

    Governing Through Crisis: Risk Management, Resilience and the Future of Higher Education
    2026/06/03
    Leaders who understand this will be the ones who get it right: governance is not just about oversight; it is about knowing when to challenge, when to intervene, and how to lead when the stakes are human as well as financial. In this episode, Erika Eliasson-Norris, CEO of Beyond Governance, speaks with Professor Sally Wheeler OBE, Vice Chancellor of Birkbeck, University of London. Sally is a distinguished academic and leader in corporate law and governance, with decades of experience navigating transformation, risk and complexity in higher education. [More information on Sally below.] Together, Erika and Sally explore what governance really looks like inside universities: institutions that are centres of learning, major employers, complex businesses, and places where student wellbeing, financial sustainability and public purpose collide. What you'll find in this episode of Grit in the Boardroom: Why governance in higher education demands both challenge and trust. How university boards can manage financial risk, uncertainty and long-term sustainability. Why strong forecasting, risk appetite and board skills are critical to institutional survival. How leadership teams can create safe spaces for challenge without losing momentum. Why student wellbeing has become a central governance issue, not a side concern. What corporate boards can learn from universities about fixed tenure, rotation and renewal. How AI could change board administration, decision tracking and governance effectiveness. Professor Sally Wheeler - Vice-Chancellor of Birkbeck, University of London, a distinguished academic and leading authority on corporate law and governance.

  • People-Centric Governance: How to Lead Boards Through Technology, Risk and Change

    People-Centric Governance: How to Lead Boards Through Technology, Risk and Change
    2026/05/20
    Leaders who understand this will be the ones who get it right: The boards that will define the next decade aren’t just governing platforms and processes; they are governing people. In this episode, Erika Eliasson-Norris, CEO of Beyond Governance, speaks with Nneka Abulokwe OBE, a governance and technology leader with extensive experience helping boards steer complex digital change. Nneka has served on FTSE-listed and private equity-backed boards, chairs ESG and Responsible Business committees, and brings a rare perspective that sits at the intersection of corporate governance, technology, and people. Her doctoral research into the governance of outsourcing laid the foundation for a career-long conviction that cuts to the heart of C-suite insights on performance: that people are not just a resource to be managed, but the primary success factor for any organisation. Together, Erika and Nneka explore what it means to govern with humanity in an age of AI, cyber risk, and accelerating change and why board effectiveness depends on intimacy with the organisation, not distance from it. What you'll find in this episode of Grit in the Boardroom: Why corporate governance is a strategic enabler, not a back-office function. How boards can build AI literacy and maintain human oversight before technology outpaces strategic decision making. What people-centric governance looks like in practice and why company culture change starts at the top table. Why risk management and high stakes strategy in the boardroom now demand fluency in AI, cyber, and the human cost of difficult decisions. How diversity and inclusion become a competitive advantage when embedded into board effectiveness and governance lessons. What new board directors should focus on in their first 90 days and why humility is the most underrated leadership skill in the boardroom. — Grit in the Boardroom is a bi-weekly podcast where Erika Eliasson-Norris sits down with the best in business for executive interviews.
