This week’s podcast is the story of Helen Dean CBE, the CEO of NEST, the National Employment Savings Trust. Helen is one of the architects of auto-enrolment, helping to bring 9 million UK workers into pension saving. Helen recounts the detail of the challenge, from defining the concept through to seeing the first £19 invested, to the multi-billion pound national pension scheme that exists today.
Joining Victoria Snowden as co-host this week is LCP Partner David Fairs, formerly of The Pensions Regulator.
David and Victoria explore key topics, such as:
- Helen’s background, her early focus and her route to becoming a CEO
- How the right partnerships can help an organisation become ‘unstoppable’
- On making a huge difference
- On the mix of skills and objectives from the public and private sectors and how this could be a model for delivering future policy beyond auto-enrolment
- The power a clear objective has as a motivating tool for an organisation
