- Økonomi
Special guest Neil Hopkins, a freelance communications leader, joined Diana, Gordon & Louise to talk about why we need equity in the workplace as well as equality.
Neil brings his experiences of working in the equity and equality space within the NHS and we explore what we mean by equity. We discuss why appreciating the differences between us is important and Neil offers some examples from his work of the damaging effects of not truly supporting organisational diversity.
Special thanks to Lena Barden for the music.
