Allyship in Action

In this episode our host Mitali is joined by Lee Chambers. 

Lee is the chief psychologist and founder of Essentialise and Male Allies UK. After a diverse career, from corporate finance to building a tech company. he now focuses on supporting organisations to engage men in inclusion, accelerate gender equity and promote effective allyship. 

In this conversation, Lee shares his experiences as a Black autistic man, a stay-at-home dad, and his journey to walk again after acquiring a chronic illness - and how these experiences have shaped his work in male allyship. 

Mitali & Lee explore: 

• How  we can close the gender gaps, reduce micro-aggressions and create more opportunities in an equitable way
• The prejudices Lee faced on pivoting to a purposeful career and how he challenged them
• How individuals can open up their perspective, be curious and build a life skill 
• The drivers of fear preventing men to get involved in inclusion 
• How Male Allies works with organisations to grow allyship competency: including building skillsets with masterclasses and workshops.
