Women Who Mean Business Series: How to be a successful male ally to women
In recent years there has been an increased understanding of the powerful impact of male allies at work and at home. This has led many organisations to recognize ‘men as allies’ as a critical component of their diversity and inclusion efforts.
This event will highlight what is takes to be a successful male ally. Join Leanne Mair, Managing Director of LM Consulting and Tony Sweeney, Chief Information Officer at Kingfisher Insurance as they share their experiences and discuss the importance of men playing their part in fighting gender inequality.
During this this session our panellist will discuss the following:
- What does male allyship really mean?
- What men think about the challenges facing women and why?
- How does corporate culture influence the dynamic for men who want to help?
- What prevents many men from taking action?
- What kind of support do women expect from their male allies?
