Listen "Shift From Profit Growth to Purpose-Profit Growth — with Dr Jacqui Taylor of Flying Binary"
Episode Synopsis
Dr Jacqui Taylor has positively impacted half of the world’s population through her company, Flying Binary, and now as a UN advisor, she’s impacting the other half of the world’s population. And in today’s episode, Jacqui takes us back to the very beginning of her journey. She was a newly qualified aerospace engineer, after completing her vocational training. But when the first project was assigned, her career came to a grinding halt — before it even started. And it had nothing to do with her experience or abilities — but her gender. Jacqui’s mentor instead found her a new role that took her down the path of applying her engineering skills to a tech environment. But more importantly, she saw it as a learning opportunity that defined her direction in life based on two principles — equality and impact. Jacqui’s work has changed how businesses explore their approach to climate change by spotlighting how much of an impact they have on the world. In what is a fascinating conversation with Jacqui on the podcast, there are a few key themes that stick out…Always speak with your peers and share ideasCollaboration is at the root of all changeBecome aware of impact firstShe leaves today’s chat with thought-provoking questions that she is exploring.
