Increasingly, organisations and business leaders are no longer measuring success solely from the annual accounts, but whether they have a defined positive purpose, whether that purpose is being met and what the organisation’s impact is. As one of our B Corp™ Champions, Emily is knowledgeable and passionate about helping you build your own purpose and positive impact – at whatever stage of this you are at. Emily is also a member of the Giving Back team at Stephens Scown and involved in the firm’s charitable efforts.
