Our guest in this episode is Carmel Crouch, the fearless and innovative Managing Director of the Steps Group of Companies; a national not for profit, making a difference by providing opportunities for individuals and communities to shine.
Steve Angel takes the driver’s seat for our chat with Carmel, to learn how she led her team, sponsors and guests to host their annual STEPS Grand Winter Ball virtually (for the first time ever). We find a strategic thinker who has taken calculated risks to double down and not only on the delivery of a major virtual event but so much more.
You won’t want to miss this discussion of what it takes to “Think Big” and follow through. From a million-dollar investment in the organisation’s training programs going to mixed-mode through to her touching pride in the people, Steps have helped – we think you’ll finish the episode in awe of Carmel as we have.
In Keep Calm And Move, Steve chats with Peter Parker, CEO of the Bluearth Foundation about the dangers of a sedentary lifestyle. We learn how Bluearth promotes and helps Australians to live better and live longer, by making mindful moving a part of everyday life.
Bluearth are also rallying people and organisations from across the world to ‘pass the baton’ across all time zones on Sunday 4 October, World Walking Day 2020! The virtual baton race celebrates the power of physical activity in unifying the world during the COVID-19 crisis.
