    Episode 3: How does WLN need to change to remain relevant today and tomorrow?

    In this episode, Kathryn James and Dr. Ann Limb CBE DL FRSA FCGI FCFE - philanthropist, mover, and Quaker - continue a conversation from our #YouToo conference on 31 March 2021, exploring the Women's Leadership Network (WLN) past, present and especially future: Why does WLN need to change, is changing, and what does it need to change into remain relevant today and tomorrow? What are the critical intersectional gender equality issues FE must address? How, in a more complex, inter-connected and changing society, do we work out which changes are relevant to us as women, in FE, in leadership? How, as leaders, do we learn to develop the good judgement needed to make the right calls in times of crisis? How can being the experience of being knocked off your pedestal professionally make you a better leader?  Why do we still need to campaign for effective leadership? How do the diversity of women leaders in FE's leadership stories illuminate and raise important issues all of society need to hear?

    Re-released from 2019: Women of Influence

    We are re-releasing this episode of #FEWomenSpeakly, from 11 April 2019, to co-incide with our '#YouToo — Can make intersectional gender equality the reality in FE' conference on Wednesday 31.3.21. Thirty years ago Ann Limb was the first ever chair of WLN. Now, in 2021, she's joining us at the #YouToo conference looking back over the history and achievements of WLN with Sally Dicketts (AoC president-elect) and Pauline Odulinski (Chair of City College Plymouth; Board member of Activate Learning Group and Fellow and Visiting Professor at Buckinghamshire New University).  In the episode, Kathryn James caught up with Ann Limb (Founder & Vice President Helena Kennedy Foundation; Fellow Commoner of Lucy Cavendish College University of Cambridge; named in the Northern Power Women 2019 Power List; #1 LGBTQ+ public sector role model on the 2019 "OUTstanding LGBT+ Role Model Lists) to find out about the early days of WLN; what advice she'd give her younger self; and why in 2019 Ann began speaking out about her own intersectional identity. As if Ann, Sally and Pauline are not enough, our #YouToo conference is packed with even more inspirational women speakers including:  Mandu Reid, our keynote speaker on growing and sustaining feminist activism. As Leader of the Women's Equality Party (WEP) Mandu is the first person of colour to lead a national political party in British history.  Alumnae from the Education and Training Foundation funded WLN Women Up 2020 and Women Up 2021 courses Arinola Edeh (Principal and Head of Service of Westminster Adult Education Service); Clare Howard (NATSPEC CEO); Corrie Harris (Principal and CEO Moulton College); Fiona Morey (Executive Principal Lambeth College and CEO South Bank Academies Trust); Lindsey Johnson (Principal and CEO Craven College); and Yvonne Kelly (Principal and CEO Barking and Dagenham College).

    Our first podcast with Cath Murray re-released as part of #FEWomensVoices 2020/21

    In the FE, skills and lifelong learning sector, and in politics and policy more generally, women's voices are desperately missing from the debate. Especially diverse women's voices. We are excited to re-release our first ever #FEWomenSpeakly podcast with @CathMurray_ (Commissioning Editor for #SchoolsWeek and #FEWeek when we recorded it in February 2019). In it Cath grabbed the Women's Leadership Network microphone to explain why she thinks it’s important for more women in FE to get their voices heard and influence the debate on key issues. To help us do just that she gave us loads of great practical advice - leading the way for our new 2020/21 academic year WLN #FEWomensVoices webinars. Give it a listen. Let us know what you think. Join the discussion. Raise your voice in FE.
