In the final episode of our first season, Katie is joined by Marc Leckie, CEO of Tottenham Hotspur Foundation - an extra special finale, as it was recorded in the Schneider Electric suite at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Marc takes Katie through what the foundation does, the importance of football clubs - like Spurs - having close ties with their associated charitable organisations, and how they work with the communities around them.
Taking Katie through a few examples of the work and projects that the foundation undertake, Marc highlights the broad spectrum of causes they contribute to under their core pillars, including education and youth & community, before going on to explain how they're working to grow awareness of the foundation, and bridge the fans' emotional connection with the club to a cause that the charity address.
With Tottenham Hotspur being named the greenest Premier League club five years running, Katie asks Marc to talk through how the green agenda is included within the foundation. Marc talks about the use of the club's kitchen garden - where the fruit and veg used to feed the men's, women's and academy players is grown - in educating young people about where their food comes from and how it's created.
The pair discuss the importance of collaboration when providing the programs and courses the foundation offer, and how partnerships with companies, like Schneider Electric, are allowing them to grow and expand their offering. The conversation then moves to collaboration within the foundation's team, and Marc shares his views on how cognitive diversity is vital to innovation and challenging yourself as individuals and an organisation.
Katie gets Marc to reflect on his career journey to date, before asking him the impact he'd like to leave on the world when he's gone.
