The Mastercard Foundation has launched a new podcast called Transcending Boundaries Conversations with Reeta Roy that seeks to inspire the next generation through candid discussions with global changemakers.
Mastercard Foundation announced in a statement that the new podcast will be hosted by Reeta Roy, President & CEO of the Mastercard Foundation and features conversations with influential figures, including former heads of state, human rights advocates, and social innovators.
“In my life as a leader, I have learned it is vital to begin a conversation by listening. Through the conversations in Transcending Boundaries, we offer a rare opportunity to learn from people who have changed the course of their own lives and the world. Understanding the formative years that shaped the lives and the journeys of these extraordinary leaders is a source of wisdom and encouragement. We all have the capacity to be leaders and to make a difference,” says Reeta Roy.
The podcast debuts with a first episode featuring Nobel Laureate and former President of Liberia, the Honourable Ellen Johnson Sirleaf. A trailblazer in governance and women’s rights, President Sirleaf discusses the formative experiences that shaped her vision, the mentors who guided her, and the values that sustained her through times of challenge and triumph.
