 Some estimates put the cost of replacing an employee in the UK at 25,000 pounds. And with one in five people considering leaving their roles, that really adds up.

It's not just about risk, it's about missed opportunity.

In this episode, Becky is joined by Sarah Gillard, CEO of A Blueprint for Better Business, a not-for-profit that helps organisations define and live their purpose. Sarah’s work aims to create a better society through better business, helping senior executives navigate the tension between profit, purpose, and long-term impact.

She's also joined by Ben Hayman, Managing Partner at Given, to explore insights from this year’s Purpose Gap research, exploring the disconnect between what companies say about purpose and what employees actually experience day to day.

In this conversation, you’ll hear why business purpose still matters, even in a polarised, uncertain world. We also delve into what the growing “purpose gap” reveals about trust, leadership, and communication, and how leaders can bring clarity, conviction, and humanity back into decision-making.
