## Resource

In this episode, we’re joined by Steph Edusei, CEO of St Oswald's Hospice in the North East, to explore what charity retail really needs from senior leadership. From how CEOs can better support and champion retail teams, to why retail leaders are often overlooked for Director of Income Generation roles, we unpack leadership, governance, and strategy. We also discuss managing trading boards and committees without slipping into micromanagement, and why equality, diversity and inclusion must sit at the heart of modern charity retail. Essential listening for CEOs, trustees, and senior retail professionals.
