One of the more neglected Covid narratives is its impact on careers, and in most cases, women’s careers.
As a sector, we want address this and discover ways to turn the growing tide before it's too late. So much headway had been made in recent years. It is imperative that we do not turn back the clock on the progress achieved.
Working from home is the new normal. How can we ensure that flexibility and empathy remain immersed into the future structure of our industries and companies? Can we harness this to minimise the negative career impact of Covid?
Could flexible working be the cultural change that significantly shapes the future of career progression?
Join our stellar panel to discuss why we need cultural change right now!
