About this speaker
Vicki has worked across a number of sectors; national and international. She brings a wealth of experience in charities, with particular emphasis on strategic alignment, use of data and cultural change. After training in private practice, Vicki has worked in not-for-profit and equity backed organisations which are both national and international. A founder member of two charities and currently a trustee for two others, Vicki understands being both a NED and an executive director.
She believes that not-for-profits need to be run with the same business rigour as for-profit organisations, and for-profit organisations can learn about focus, and for-profit organisations can learn about vision, staff morale and culture from not-for-profits. This comes evidence-driven decision making and establishing clear transparency and accountability.
