We're delighted to welcome Denise Wilson OBE to the podcast.

Denise is the former chief executive of the FTSE Women Leaders Review and has led the UK’s business task force to increase the number of women on boards and in leadership positions.

She has made a significant contribution to gender equality in British business and is passionate about empowering women.

We discuss:

How the UK made such massive strides in closing the gender gap at board level
What still needs to change for gender equality
How to get to an Exec Director position
Why as a parent everything doesn’t need to be perfect but “good enough”

We hope you enjoy the conversation.

This episode is part of the future of work series, where we explore how work will change in the future to help everyone thrive and progress their careers equitably regardless of circumstances.
