From Operational Overload to Strategic Value

We were back this June with Vibe 2023, offering live sessions on topics that matter to you! Recordings are now available to registered attendees 

Optimism Café Podcasts

The Optimism Café Podcasts were inspired by our resident Optimist Victor Perton together with the inspirational good news stories that began to trickle in from members across the global during the pandemic. 

Amongst the sea of content that the world wants you to consume right now, our podcasts are short, easily digestible real life stories that you can listen to on the go. In this first series, Sally Guyer, CEO, interviews a phenomenal selection of our members highlighting everything from acts of human kindness, generosity, innovation and social good at a time when we really need something to feel optimistic about.
