In this episode of Bravery in the Boardroom, we are joined by Joseph (Joe) Burroughs, the Associate Director at Clive Henry Group, for a powerful discussion on leadership, legacy and the importance of authenticity. Joe shares his unique career journey, from studying sports science in Liverpool to developing a successful career in recruitment and specialising in Continuing Healthcare (CHC) and reflects on what it means to be a role model for the next generation. Joe speaks candidly about the challenges of navigating the "corporate chessboard," including his experiences with microaggressions and the lack of senior representation for leaders of colour. Drawing inspiration from the Windrush generation and the bravery of his parents, Joe explains why he is committed to "holding the ladder out" and rejecting the "crabs in a bucket" mentality to help others succeed. This episode is a must-watch for aspiring leaders looking to turn their own "plot twists" into a character arc of success.
