FLAME with Brad Hook

Generosity: A Superpower for Personal and Business Success

Dr Nicole F. Roberts · Author, Generosity Wins; founder, Health & Human Rights Strategies1 November 202455 min

Dr Nicole F. Roberts — author of Generosity Wins and executive director of Feed A Billion — makes the evidence-based case that giving is a competitive advantage, not a cost.

Nicole works at the intersection of health, human rights and philanthropy, and her book Generosity Wins assembles the research most business culture ignores: generous people and organisations consistently outperform on the metrics that matter — trust, retention, opportunity flow, even health outcomes.

We explore why generosity functions as a superpower rather than a sacrifice, how to practise it without being exploited, and what Feed A Billion has taught her about impact at scale. An episode that pairs warm conviction with hard evidence — and lands right in FLAME territory: connection as infrastructure.
