They share their real world experience, how they have navigated their career to date, as well as their advice to the next generation of leaders.
In our sixth episode, Tom Neely, Housing Sector Lead at Berwick Partners was thrilled to be joined someone who was once described to him as “one of the most inspirational leaders I’ve worked within the sector” – Carol Matthews, Chief Executive of the Riverside Housing Group. In this episode we talk to Carol about her humble beginnings and what drove her to become the best she can be but also, and arguably more importantly, what drives her today as she takes her organisation through a merger with One Housing Group to become one of the biggest landlords in the UK.
