In Episode 35 of Leaders Podcast, host Mike LaCorte, CEO of Conflict International, sits down in person with Tom Platts, Partner and Head of M&A in Asia at international law firm Stephenson Harwood LLP. With decades of experience in international law and cross border transactions, Tom shares insights from his professional journey as well as the personal mission that has transformed his life in recent years. As the founder of the #MacRitchieChallenge and walk-to-talk.com, Tom has walked nearly 25,000 kilometres since 2023, bringing together more than 2,100 people from 58 countries to raise awareness and funds for dementia care across Singapore, Australia, the United Kingdom and beyond. In this conversation, Mike and Tom discuss leadership, resilience, balancing high level legal work with charitable impact, and how small consistent actions can build a global movement.
