In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

منذ 1 year41:25

41:25

Listen to the recording of our panel discussion event on neurodiversity with MK Kirigin, Héloïse Thon, Ashley Sigmon! Neurodiversity has recently been increasingly recognised as one of the pillars of corporate DEI efforts. In particular, neurodiversity in the workplace examines whether an organisation supports neurodiverse candidates and workers, trains non-neurodiverse managers to support all their staff, and works toward creating a culture of neuroinclusivity. This panel will cover why neurodiversity is important in the workplace, exchange best practices for supporting neurodiversity at work, and discuss concrete steps to cultivate neuroinclusivity in the workplace. We will hear from Héloïse Thon (Neurodivergent Coach), Ashley Sigmon (Sr. Career Specialist at CareerFoundry), and MK Kirigin (Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion Expert). About the speakers Ashley is a Senior Career Services Support Advisor for CareerFoundry, helping to support a team of over 100 freelance coaches to provide top-quality career guidance to students and alumni. Originally from the US, she left a role as a career coach for people with disabilities to move to Berlin with her husband in 2019. All too familiar with the challenges that neurodivergent people face at work, Ashley is excited by any opportunity to foster dialogue and inclusivity, especially in management and HR contexts. As a Neurodivergent Coach & Consultant, Héloïse is passionate about helping individuals and organisations embrace neurodiversity and create a more inclusive and innovative world. After eight years working in Human Resources in corporate settings, Héloïse has started her own coaching & consulting practice to help neurodivergent individuals thrive. She is herself neurodivergent and understands firsthand the challenges of having a uniquely wired mind. Héloïse aims to support individuals navigating neurodiversity, increase awareness, and create safe spaces to empower neurodivergent people to be themselves. A proud Latina from Bolivia who grew up in 5 countries, MK is a global Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion expert who has been dedicated to creating safe and supportive spaces in schools and workplaces for over 8 years. MK aims to bring intersectionality to all DEI conversations. She has worked closely with neurodivergent students and colleagues, initiating affinity groups, leadership trainings, and ongoing dialogue on the topic. As someone who has experience with ADHD, she is passionate about creating workplaces where all individuals can thrive and contribute their unique skill sets by having access to the support and accommodations they need.

Parental leave with Renata Mrazova and Evgeniy Akulich 1:01:57

منذ 3 years1:01:57

1:01:57

What does parental leave look like in different countries? What is the optimal model and what can companies do to make it easier for parents to return to their jobs? In this episode, we sat down with experienced leaders Renata Mrazova and Evgeniy Akulich to hear their views on this heavily debated topic, including the ultimate question: do you have to choose between career or children, or is it possible to have it all? About the speakers: Renata Mrazova Renata is an experienced business leader whose professional experience spans decades. After graduating from University of Economics, Prague in 1995, she began her professional career in the finance division of Swedish pharmaceutical firm Astra (now AstraZeneca), later becoming Finance Director and coordinating a merger with the British firm Zeneca. Since then, she has served as CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Direct Insurance, CFO at ING Group, devoted time to her family business - the largest company in the fabrics industry in Czech and Slovak markets (retail, wholesale and e-commerce) - and also worked as an external consultant on several projects for the banking and insurance sectors. In 2019, she moved back to the Czech Republic with her family after four years spent in the Netherlands serving as Global Head of HR of NN Group in The Hague, where she was responsible for strategic HR in 18 markets. On returning to her home country, she joined Home Credit International, a.s. (part of PPF Group), a global leader in consumer finance, as Group Chief People Officer. She is a proud mother of 2 daughters, Anna (18) and Eliska (14), and is married. Evgeniy Akulich Evgeniy is an experienced professional and leader in strategy management consulting and people development. He started his career in HR in 2005, shifting to strategy management consulting in 2009. Evgeniy spent 11 years with BCG in Russia and Switzerland, having completed above 60 projects in 25+ markets, focusing on Consumer goods, banking, telecoms and public sector/social impact. It was a very exciting but very demanding time – a lot of travel (up to 130 flights / year), long hours, unpredictable schedules. Evgeniy took a parental leave just before pandemic, quit BCG in the middle of the 1st lock down, then worked as independent consultant and executive coach for 9 months and got back to strategy consulting as a partner at EY-Parthenon in Switzerland. Evgeniy will share his experience of taking a parental leave after his son was born, going through pandemic, quitting his job, looking for other options that are better compatible with children and family, how he got back to consulting and how he manages his work and family time. Insights from the speakers: when it comes to your parental leave, do not think in any pattern, everyone is different, so you will in the end have to find your own solution if the speakers should just say just one ideal length of a parental leave for them, it would be 1 year - it is not too long so that it would harm your career, it is not too short so that your kid can already be without you for a longer period, plus some time off might do you good if you already worked for a couple years when combining work and family, don’t forget about yourself everyone is equally capable of taking care of and raising a child the second parent is not ‘helping’ the other ‘take care’ of their child, it’s their child as well important thing is also financial planning for the parental leave…
