from WholeStory - An FWD Podcast · host Food & Drink Wholesale UK

How inclusive are our workplaces really, and what still needs to change? In this episode of WholeStory, we’re joined by Michelle McDaid, founder of The Leading Place, to explore gender allyship, leadership and the cultures organisations create. Michelle discusses why deeply embedded workplace systems can be hard to shift. We look at findings from the Championing Change report, the importance of visible female leadership, and the creation of the new Women Leading Wholesale Ambassadors network. From tokenism to the role men must play in driving equality, Michelle shares practical advice for leaders who want people and performance to thrive. A thoughtful conversation celebrating progress, while asking what comes next.
