The Leaders Council of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is currently in the process of talking to leadership figures from across the nation in an attempt to understand this universal trait and what it means in Britain and Northern Ireland today.
Laura from The South Devon Players Theatre & Film Company was invited onto an episode of the podcast, which also included an interview with Geoff Hurst. Host Matthew O'Neill asked both guests a series of questions about leadership and the role it has played in their careers to date. Matthew O'Neill commented, ‘Hosting a show like this, where you speak to genuine leaders who have been there and done it, either on a national stage or within a crucial industry sector, is an absolute honour.’ Lord Blunkett, chairman of The Leaders Council of Great Britain and Northern Ireland said, ‘I think the most informative element of each episode is the first part, where Matthew O'Neill is able to sit down with someone who really gets how their industry works and knows how to make their organisation tick. Someone who’s there day in day out working hard and inspiring others. That’s what leadership is all about.’ You can listen to the podcast in full here: https://youtu.be/LIZ9du16ot0 You can also discover more about both Laura Jury and Geoff Hurst here: http://www.leaderscouncil.co.uk/members/laura-jay

Before our rehearsals for A Midsummer Night's Dream today, a whole bunch of our team, those who were interested, were auditioned by a visiting filmmaker, for a new external production. While no major detaiils will be announced yet, we look forward to working with this filmmaker on his project over the spring. An absolutely excellent morning.
Another (new) good thing aboout being an Equity member for anyone who is eligible. Lots of creatives wrestle with stress or depression at times, especially in a tough industry like ours. So this could be very handy for a lot of people. Equity has launched a groundbreaking support system for members dealing with mental health problems. This will include a new dedicated 24/7 helpline, an individual assessment and up to six professional counselling sessions available across the UK.
