Episode Synopsis
Gael Drummond has been quietly making waves in the social enterprise world, bringing a leadership style that is both tenacious and refreshingly ego-less.

Since joining Firstport in 2014, she has guided the organisation through key developments and, since becoming CEO in 2022, has represented the sector at national and international levels.Passionate about helping people to help others, Gael sees social enterprise as the future and feels privileged to work alongside the Firstport team and inspirational entrepreneurs driving meaningful change every day.Tune in to hear how Gael is leading change with humility, insight, and unwavering belief in the power of people and enterprise to do good.Working For Progress is hosted by Dani Trudeau and produced by Alice Hudson.
