Text from youtube "Writer Francis Spufford in conversation with Beverly Dixon, Group HR Director at G’s Fresh, discussing what it means to be ‘good’ in the farming industry. 

Beverly Dixon is Group HR Director at G's Fresh, a major agricultural business with its roots in the Fens. She has worked as an HR professional throughout the food supply chain and has created an extensive training framework to develop skills for people working in agriculture. She is Director of MDS Ltd and a visiting Lecturer at London's CASS Business School. She champions sound ethical working practices throughout the supply chain, securing a reliable supply of seasonal labour. She is a Trustee of Rural Cambridgeshire Citizens Advice Bureau and joint chair of the Ely Cathedral Business Group. 

How To Be Good is a series of conversations between Francis Spufford and five distinguished professionals in which they discuss what 'good' looks like in their working lives, how they negotiate difficult ethical territory, and how their professional 'goodness' is informed, challenged, or at odds with the Christian tradition. 

The events take place on Thursdays at 6.45pm in the Drawing Room of The Bishop's House, Ely, starting on 6 September 2018. Videos of each talk are being released on the Ely Cathedral YouTube channel at 7pm on the following Monday, from 10 September to 8 October 2018."
