Show Notes
Lisa Shepherd is co-owner of the Biskery and a mum. They hand-make branded biscuits for businesses including Meta, Google and Lloyds Bank.
This is a literal kitchen-table business that has grown and scaled, but that's not the point of the Biskery.
They exist to make life fairer for working women, in a lot of ways they fly in the face of business convention. They are focussed on their staff and put kindness in the workplace front and centre of everything they do.
But that's not easy.
So how do they do that?
Leona chats to Lisa about:
- How the Biskery was born from the kitchen table
- Kindness, and how it is a cornerstone of their values
- Our workplaces and why they need to change
- Having a family and why that fundamentally changed her
- Why bosses should respect what employees are going through every day
- The Biskery and why it's much more than just a business
