Visionary Leader | Championing Safer Travel | Empowering Women in Business & Innovation
A Journey of Transformation
The crowded train station hummed with restless energy as Becky Winter watched the flurry of movement around her. A mother struggled with a stroller, trying to navigate the narrow platform; a young girl hesitated at the edge, scanning the dimly lit space for a sign of safety. Becky had seen it countless times—people, especially women and vulnerable individuals, battling an environment that should have been designed for them, but wasn’t. That moment sparked something deeper in her—a realization that change wasn’t just necessary, it was overdue.
It was in this everyday chaos that Becky found her purpose: to redefine mobility, ensuring that travel is not just a function, but a right—safe, clean, and welcoming for all. Her journey from a software expert to a transformative leader in sustainable transport and women’s empowerment was not a straight path, but it was one driven by a relentless commitment to making an impact.
“Change doesn’t happen by waiting for the perfect moment—it happens when we decide that the moment is now.”
The Journey Begins
Becky’s professional journey began with a strong foundation in operations, administration, and software solutions. From an early stage in her career, she showed a keen ability to blend strategic vision with practical execution, a skill set that would later define her impact-driven leadership style. Her tenure at companies like Tribal Group and Pearson saw her take on roles that ranged from software analysis to stakeholder engagement, each adding to her ability to translate challenges into solutions.
Her passion for people-centered leadership was evident even outside the corporate world. In 2022, Becky took a bold step into public service, running for South Yorkshire Mayor. She initially believed that transport issues were a personal challenge, only to discover through her campaign that they were far more widespread and deeply rooted. This eye-opening experience reinforced her dedication to community-driven transformation and set the stage for her future endeavors.
A Leader in Innovation and Impact
Becky’s career trajectory showcases a rare blend of technology, advocacy, and entrepreneurship. Currently, she serves as the Operations Manager at Pure Leapfrog, where she supports Lewis Sharman in leading the implementation of Let Zero, a pioneering initiative designed to streamline sustainable building upgrades. Her focus includes:
Offering strategic support and creating the space for innovation within Let Zero
Establishing best practices and processes
Maximizing local supply chain impact
Shaping the future of sustainable housing solutions
Simultaneously, Becky is the Founder of Bee Winter Ltd, a transformative platform dedicated to empowering women entrepreneurs. Through her She-Solves Programme, she fosters creative problem-solving, resilience, and strategic action. Becky’s mission is clear: to break barriers, nurture leadership, and strengthen business ecosystems.
As a Co-Founder and Director at Fleet, Becky is at the forefront of crowdfunding safer travel solutions for women, girls, and vulnerable communities. Her work in this space is groundbreaking, advocating for transportation systems that are not only efficient but also prioritizing safety, accessibility, and inclusivity.
“Every challenge we face is an opportunity to build something better, stronger, and more inclusive”

Becky’s influence extends far beyond boardrooms and strategy sessions. She is a connector, a mentor, and an advocate for positive change. Her recent LinkedIn posts reflect her excitement about new ventures, the importance of collaborative leadership, and her unwavering dedication to creating spaces where women can thrive.
Becky’s advocacy for female founders and well-being-focused business models sets her apart in a rapidly evolving entrepreneurial landscape. Whether it’s through mentorship, sustainable initiatives, or strategic collaborations, she remains steadfast in her pursuit of a better, more inclusive future.
“Women supporting women is not just a philosophy—it’s a movement that drives real impact.”

She remains passionate about the intersection of innovation and social good, ensuring that the solutions she champions today create lasting impact for generations to come.
As she continues to lead with purpose, Becky’s legacy will not just be defined by the roles she held but by the communities she uplifted, the barriers she dismantled, and the future she shaped.
“The future isn’t written yet, but we have the power to shape it. Let’s make it one where safety, sustainability, and equity lead the way.
