The Purpose Brief

Podcast

The world's first podcast on social good arrived on Tuesday 20th January 2026.

Listen in on regular conversations with leaders working in the social good space. They'll be a change maker, a positive disruptor, someone who is shifting the dial on making the world a better place. They'll be actively helping scale the impact economy and purpose driven growth or they will be persuasive thinkers who can help you reshape your view of the changing world in which we live.

We wanted to create content that builds a sense of connection and place and gives you time out to focus and listen in. It's ring fenced time for you to put yourself outside of your comfort zone and understand different perspectives underneath those noisy news headlines.

To access our monthly episodes, please stream through major platforms.

In each issue, you’ll receive strategic insight and feature blogs about all things social good. We'll unpack this term for you in more detail.

You'll receive:

✨ Fresh thinking on how organisations and leaders are leading with purpose in a bad news kind of world

🌍 Big-picture perspectives on the complex, disruptive forces shaping the world in which we operate

💡 Invites to in-person events and webinars on big challenge topics

🔎 Stories about Change Makers who are redefining leadership and impact in their sectors - for people, place and planet

Who is this for?

Whatever you identify as, firstly you'll be a good citizen. You are committed to creating a better world for the next generation in work or in life.

You may also be:

• An organisational leader of an established company or emerging SME ready to be bold about your corporate giving - any sector is welcome
• A funder or philanthropic minded founder who sees themselves as the next generation of philanthropists
• A non-profit charity (VCSE) ready to scale your fundraising, manage your stakeholders more effectively and get serious about solutions based fundraising
• A leader with an Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG), Impact or Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) portfolio looking to redefine your organisation's approach
• an expert professional with a focus in policy, stakeholder management or fundraising - working to a brief which has you chipping away at the coal face to shape impact
• A creative or a techie looking to use their craft to help design social good

Our Purpose

The Purpose Brief is the thinking space to explore a whole range of issues in the social good space. Because purpose driven people are dispersed across tribes and sectors and geographic boundaries, we wanted to bring them back to one place to foster shared thinking and best practice beyond our professional silos.

We have a fun editorial style. Visual, celebratory and focused on human connection. We'll weave in plenty of pop culture references and we'll encourage you to find the purpose in your impact work through our content and stories.
