Inspiring leadership in action – you won’t want to miss this episode of The CEO Lens podcast.
Host Paul Miller (CEO, Cipla Africa) chats to Operation Smile’s Sarah Scarth about the extraordinary global impact of an organisation that has transformed millions of lives around the world.
Paul and Sarah explore how Operation Smile’s work goes far beyond the operating theatre – strengthening health systems, challenging stigma, and giving children the chance to eat, speak, smile, and thrive.
The conversation also unpacks why timely access to surgery is life-changing, and how a single procedure can alter the trajectory of a child’s entire future. Find out more about:
