"we don't just do something because "that's what we do". We will throw something away very quickly if it is not being effective"
In the summer of 2021, as PPR appointed our new Director, Chloë Trew, we worked with the award-winning producer/director, Trevor Birney to capture the learning of the previous two decades.
Throughout this fascinating series of podcasts, Trevor interviews PPR’s former Director, Dessie Donnelly to explore the origins of PPR, the seminal influence of Inez McCormack, how we engage with power, deal with adversity and deliver change.
Reflecting on our journey, while responding to the Covid-19 pandemic, the podcasts are a behind the scenes look at PPR - the wins, the losses and the lessons for the future.
In Episode Four, ‘The History’, Dessie looks back at seminal moments in PPR’s history and discusses what has made the approach such a success.
