- Økonomi
Today, we invite you into a conversation that is sure to challenge your perspective and broaden your horizons. We've had the privilege of sitting down with Noémie, an influential figure at the forefront of advocating for equity, diversity, and inclusion.
Her journey is rooted in her experiences in South Korea, where she first encountered significant cultural differences and misunderstandings, which inspired the pursuit of her passion.
Noémie's story of self-discovery and exploration of privilege is compelling, and she brings these lessons to the daunting world of business, unravelling the often overlooked, yet impactful, office rituals that shape our workplace culture.
She highlights the lack of women in leadership roles and emphasises the necessity of a qualitative approach when navigating the experiences of marginalised individuals in the workplace. Noémie's insights are a call to action, reminding us all of our role in creating more inclusive and diverse environments.
Beyond the office, Noémie is a staunch advocate for inclusivity and diversity in the job market, particularly for those with disabilities.
She talks about her work with organisations like FortSchritt Bayern, which are making strides in promoting linguistic inclusion and creating opportunities for the youth.
This episode concludes on a powerful note — the call for humility, the acknowledgement of indigenous wisdom beyond the Western framework, and the importance of empowering others.
