    This week we’re talking about challenging gender bias in the workplace. We’re joined by our Director of Governance, Legal and Risk, Gemma Burton-Connolly, and guest Kate Henderson.

    Inspired by the theme of this year’s International Women’s Day, Choose to Challenge, today’s episode is about understanding the experiences of women and why we need to continue to challenge gender bias if and when it happens at work. A challenged world is an alert world, and we hope you enjoy Kate and Gemma’s conversation as they talk about what we all need to do to continue seeing positive change happen.
