The Seamless Leadership Podcast
Podcast Description
The Seamless Leadership Podcast has been created with Seamless, Australia's national clothing product stewardship scheme. This series tells the story of what it takes to build a new circular system for clothing, with brands and retailers taking responsibility for their products’ entire lifespan. We'll hear from inspiring leaders as they explore challenges, innovations and insights across four key priorities: circular design, circular business models, closing the loop through recycling and repurposing, and consumer behaviour change. What's the plan? How does it work? Why is it a big deal? And what's being done, right now, to rewrite the story of clothing waste in this country.For more info visit, seamlessaustralia.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

C-Suite buy-in is a critical success factor for any organisation determined to make transformational change, and circularity is no exception. For our final bonus episode, we’re exploring the importance of leadership in driving responsible business, and asking big questions about backing bold strategy.
Host Clare Press sits down with Rebecca Hard, who since 2020 has been Group Retail Chief Executive Officer at The Sussan Group, which includes the much-loved high street womenswear brands Sussan, Sportsgirl and Suzanne Grae.
Having been with the business for 25 years, Rebecca has a long term view on the future of the Australian clothing sector. She passionately believes that customers looking for more affordable clothing options deserve brands that consider ethics and circularity too. To prove it, The Sussan Group recently achieved B Corp status, and Rebecca brought all three group brands on board as Seamless foundation members.
We asked her about her own drivers and priorities, and about how her teams have responded. How do they communicate their purpose to their customers? And what has she learned about the power of transformational change, balancing profit with positive impact, and the importance of fostering strong collaborative relationships? It’s an open, honest conversation that’s sure to inspire.
