Actions Speak Louder than Words was the theme for the first ever #BCorpUKFestival. Thanks to the #BCorp Beauty Coalition for inviting me to moderate their panel with a stellar lineup. The Coalition is a group of over 80 brands who are on a mission to change the beauty industry for the better. I was lucky enough to interview a panel of industry leaders: Oriele Frank of ELEMIS, Laura Rudoe (nee Howard) of Evolve Organic Beauty, Jo-Anne Chidley of Beauty Kitchen UK Ltd | B Corp, Sabrina Elba of S'ABLE Labs all sharing their experiences and practices for better business. Business is the problem – so it has to be a part of the solution, but sometimes it easy to think that an industry like the beauty industry doesn't have enough weight to make a difference with the systemic change required. But it totally does! The legend Mary Portas reminded me of this when she opened the festival with an inspiring keynote. She spoke about the pioneer of #stakeholdercapitalism Anita Roddick and praised her ability to create The Body Shop by being one of the first to balance desire and trust with customers. Her legacy lives on and we must continue to innovate. Being surrounded by over 2,000 people all on the same mission really highlights how collaborative action is crucial if we want to create a #systemschange. And always wonderful to connect with so many people making it their mission to be part of the solution!
