I’m calling bulls**t on the Times Top 50 Employers for Women list: This is why you should too…
Is it responsible to assert claims on who is a ‘Top Employer’ for women, while women simultaneously speak out about their poor lived experiences in said workplaces? With the extensive reach and heavily promoted prestige of inclusion on the Times Top 50 Employers for Women list perhaps we need to rethink how responsible such claims are…
In this article, I hope to challenge the perception that inclusion on lists such as these mean that these workplaces are great places for women.
Speak Out Story: There is hope after workplace harassment.
This is the first in the series of our Speak Out Stories.
The Speak Out Stories are a series of anonymous blogs which provide a voice to those who have been silenced, raise awareness of the challenges which others face and empower everyone to advocate for truly inclusive workplaces.
This blog shares unique insights into one person’s experience of workplace sexual harassment, the challenges of reporting and the impact on their mental health.
The silent killer of truly diverse and inclusive workplaces

In this article, I share my views on the accepted culture of silence around harassment and bullying, the practices which perpetuate the problem and why we need a Speak Out Revolution if we’re committed to achieving fair and safe working environments for everyone.
