Show Notes
Rikki Arundel is a story telling expert and high profile speaker on gender inclusion. She also happens to be trans.
We discuss DE&I, bias, the journey she went through from successful salesperson and manager in the financial services world to a stalwart advocate for the rights of minority groups. We celebrate difference. We discuss the challenges, the hardships, the discrimination and the courage required to be different.
We have a grown up, un-PC, un-woke discussion without treading on egg-shells. It was a wonderfully refreshing exploration of a sensitive and difficult topic which usually has white middle aged men like me fleeing for the hills. I hope it's opened your eyes and your heart to acceptance and seeing the value of hiring for difference and making it safe and possible for those who are different to fit in and contribute fully.
I'm sure there will be a few of you who will allow your prejudices to get the better of you. Please don't behave like a twat in your comments. You know who you are that I'm speaking to. There's no need for it. Ask intelligent questions, challenge but play respectfully. It's the grown up thing to do.
Please listen. Rikki makes immense sense and I feel richer for having met her.
