Welcome to another episode of For Leaders By Leaders, I’m thrilled to be joined by David Barrett, a visionary in internal communications and multimedia, who has spent nearly two decades at the World Health Organization, currently serving as the Internal Communications and Multimedia Manager at the WHO Regional Office for Europe.
David’s journey is nothing short of inspiring. With a career that started in television production and evolved into crafting engaging internal communications, he’s a master at connecting people with purpose. He draws from a unique blend of experiences, including his lifelong passion for theatre as an actor, director, and producer. For David, leadership is not about a solo performance; it’s about rallying a team, fostering collaboration, and ensuring everyone plays their part in creating something extraordinary.
In this episode, David shares insights on how he inspired others through the challenging times of COVID-19, how his theatrical background shapes his leadership philosophy, and his passion for making information accessible and engaging within an organization as impactful as the WHO. His story will resonate with leaders looking to motivate teams, navigate crises, and build a shared vision that truly sings.
