Leap of Faith: Redefining People, Culture, and Learning with Jules Quinn

Описание: This episode of In The Mixx, hosted by Chris and Gemma of MIXXOS Group, dives deep into the world of people, purpose, and transformation in education with Jules Quinn, Group Director of People Services at Milton Keynes College Group.

Jules shares her non-linear career journey—from financial services to teaching to senior HR leadership—and the leaps of faith that shaped her path. The conversation explores how culture, kindness, and connection drive retention and engagement across education, why transferable skills matter more than perfect CVs, and how Milton Keynes College is rethinking talent attraction in a skills-short market.

Chris and Gemma also unpack with Jules the growing importance of neurodiversity and accessibility, how to make hiring genuinely inclusive, and what the future holds for communication, leadership, and emerging generations entering the workforce. Expect insight on everything from ethical employment practices to the evolving digital landscape in education.

A refreshingly honest and human look at the realities of leading people through change — and why bravery and self-belief can be career game-changers.
