This week we have the remarkable Mandy Burns on the podcast. Mandy started as a CEO of Variety Victoria mid December 2019 and previously worked with the new social network platform B Collective to take it from a tech start-up to a global movement. She has practised as a psychologist, relationship counsellor and educator in both Melbourne and Perth and I’m so grateful to have her unstoppable energy on the show today. 



Mandy has held numerous national and local NFP board roles, led networking and support of women events, and has been recognised by Victoria’s Children’s Community and Telstra Business Women's Awards. 



In our conversation, we’re exploring Mandy’s passion for doing everything she can to impact the lives of children and the environment. 



Mandy is making it count by taking responsibility. This manifests for her in different ways, including volunteering, picking up rubbish on beaches, living her social justice ideals and working with children. 



If we accept something we know is wrong, we become part of the problem. 



Mandy explores her CEO role in Variety Children’s Charity, her background sitting on boards for charities, the inspiration that came from learning about youth homelessness, the vulnerability of being a leader, the challenges of leadership (while wearing undies on the outside and a cape!), and the key attributes that a modern leader absolutely needs in 2022. 



It fills Mandy’s heart with joy to make a difference in the lives of children. She shares how her friends, family, values, working with amazing people and benefiting from their collective wisdom keep her anchored every day. 



Mandy is such an inspirational leader who advises us to make it count by taking responsibility in our lives and never doubt that a small group of people can truly change the world.

Want to know the secret to confident and successful leadership?

Every week, Leading You showcases leadership of all kinds and you get the scoop on how to be an effective, modern leader who makes an impact.

There’s one thing we all have in common. We’re all leaders. First and foremost, you’re a leader of you. You don’t need a title to be a leader. Leadership is a mindset which anyone can adopt to create influence. The more leaders the world has, the better it will be.

I'll let you into something I know to be true - You can’t be a leader of others unless you’re a leader of self first. So if you want to have impact that leads to prosperity and happiness, it all starts with you. With your mindset and personal leadership toolbox, which Leading You will help you build up.

Leading you is hosted by Julie Hyde, an entrepreneur, corporate drop out and passionate leader. Julie knows one thing: you can’t control what happens to you but you can control how you respond. It’s why Leading You is important.

Each week, guests share their secret sauce. They reveal their roadmaps to success. How they’ve stayed anchored to who they are, insights into their courage and resilience and how to be emotionally and behaviourally agile. It’s a conversation, not an interrogation, and you’ll hear the human side of household names.
