Gender equality doesn't mean fewer rights for men. It's not a cake!
A Success Story from a Professional Man....because equality is about inclusivity!
Why aren't there more men like you Jeremy??
Jeremy Stockdale, CEO of Ylead, spent, by his own admission, 50 years thinking he was one of the good guys when it came to gender equality. And then with the help of his daughter, a T-shirt and a few good books on the subject he realised he had got it wrong.
If you haven't heard of Jeremy, try searching LinkedIn for "On Wednesday we Smash the Patriarchy" It's the platform Jeremy created to encourage open conversations around the many challenges and some of the taboos, facing women in the work place.
I haven't edited this podcast. The conversation is so rich, not to mention entertaining, I wanted to leave it all in.
In this episode we discuss
His motivation for creating the platform, what's worked and what hasn't
Why he thinks it's so important for men to support women in the workplace
The reasons some men still aren't getting it
What makes an effective gender ally
Being trolled by women
Sleeping less stupid
An edited transcript from this episode will be included in Success Without Compromise: Empowering the next generation of Female Leaders
