Abi’s guest is Michelle Thew, long standing CEO of Cruelty Free International, one of the world’s most respected animal protection organisations. It works to create a world where nobody wants or believes we need to experiment on animals.

In this episode Michelle shares her journey to leadership and her thoughts on what it’s like to be the leader of a campaigning organisation for social justice. She also discusses:

How she was driven to this role by an overwhelming desire to work in the animal protection community.
The reasons why the job isn’t at all what she expected it to be

and

How she spots leadership potential in others

She also shares how she maintains her staying power and her secret sauce for managing stress in such an important, high profile role.
