62/ ELLIE ORTON, NHS CHARITIES TOGETHER
Episode 62
Our chat with Ellie features three famous figures - Captain Tom, Joe Wicks and £100m. Before that we talk vertigo, the practice of ubuntu and Tom Hanks’ favourite fish and chip shop.
An eclectic episode includes smuggling bibles into Romania, prompting a revolution and restructuring yourself out of an organisation. Then we get on to realising the potential for a sleeping giant and what happens when you raise £100m in six weeks whilst simultaneously ticking off the aims from your five year strategy, without leaving your kitchen table.
There’s still time for everyone’s favourite PE teacher to call from the bank, to hear all about how the captain broke JustGiving and we discover how to lead in a crisis. There’s also a contender for the most stressful first two weeks in a role on record as we discuss the amazing story of NHS Charities Together with CEO Ellie Orton.
