CHANGE MAKERS Episode 4 – The first woman at the helm of UNICEF | Carol Bellamy

In this episode, we spoke to Carol Bellamy, former Executive Director of UNICEF. Carol spoke to us with admirable candor about her experience of leading UNICEF at a pivotal time in the organization.

In particular, what was it like to try to broaden the focus of the organization toward fully embracing the all-encompassing vision of the Convention on the Rights of the Child? How did she deal with the management challenges of running an organization with over 10,000 people working all over the world? What do you do when you are faced with serious wrongdoing by your own staff? And what did these experiences tell her about her own strengths and weaknesses as a leader?

Thanks for tuning in, and we hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did!
