Education


In the first episode of my Women and Politics series, I am joined by Diversity Leadership Expert, Dr. Doirean Wilson from the United Kingdom. I’m thrilled to share with you this rich conversation around the cultural meanings of respect, socialization, understandings of power and the implications for women with political aspirations. We explore the drivers and barriers to the success of women operating in male dominated spaces and Dr. Wilson also gives tested advice for women on how to excel in their field of choice. This episode also includes a history lesson that will help emerging women leaders to be strategic.
