Leaders in Conversation is the podcast in which leaders share their leadership story, weaving together the threads of their life; the people, places and experiences that have shaped their values, beliefs, passion and purpose to encourage and inspire you to be even more confident and courageous in your leadership.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Today’s guest is Jason Webber Senior Equality, Diversity, Inclusion and Sustainability Manager Football Association Wales (FAW). I had the joy of meeting Jason at the Diversity and Inclusion Global Forum in 2024 where Lucy Kidd and I were exhibiting our Collaboration Equation™.

Jason and I had a conversation about leadership, about football and collaboration which led me to inviting him to be a podcast guest on Leaders in Conversation with Anni Townend.

In our conversation Jason offers valuable insights into:

  • Creating a welcoming, safe and inclusive environment
  • Diversity/Representation at all levels especially in senior leadership.
  • Education & Awareness
  • Taking meaningful action and sustainable progress.


Jason’s Three Key Encouragements to Leaders 

  1. Lead by example, be authentic and be an ally.
  2. Listen to people's lived experiences and proactively educate yourself.
  3. Take action and make a difference to someone's life.
