MCCA (Minority Corporate Counsel Association)’s Post

I loved hosting Queensway's International Women's Day panel discussion yesterday with panellists Vanessa Hall, Nick Pilbeam and Lucy Soper MCIPD as we talked about empathetic leadership and inspiring inclusion. It's invigorating to be part of a company's conversation about how to make the workplace a more supportive place to be. Imagine if every organisation took the time to inspire people to be more empathetic in their every day? Apart from the obvious and most important factor that staff feel seen and heard and are therefore, happier, it's also proven that it improves retention and results. Key takeaways: Be yourself Ask for feedback - and be prepared to hear it Remember that empathy and compassion is your superpower I really enjoy doing panel moderation so if you're looking for someone to ask the questions at your next event, do get in touch! #empathy #leadership #paneldiscussion #corporatewellness

Leaders, when we actively include diverse voices, we open doors to new ideas, fresh perspectives, and transformative innovation. This National Inclusion Week, let’s think about how we can create more inclusive and psychologically safe spaces, not just for the sake of it, but to truly ignite progress. We've still a way to go. Inclusion is not just a principle—it's a leadership practice that transforms diversity into collective strength. When every voice is valued, true innovation and impact follow. #Leadership #NationalInclusionWeek #InnovativeLeadership
