women leaders

When the numbers are so low to begin with, it’s easy for progress on women in leadership to take a significant turn for the worse with just a couple of resignations.

Just 16 months into her five-year tenure as our first ever full-time Race Discrimination Commissioner, Dr Helen Szoke has announced she’s leaving the post in order to take up the role of Chief Executive with Oxfam.

Almost six years ago I found myself part of a leadership team that was equal parts male and female.

It was barely a week ago and yet, thanks to an eventful election in between, it feels like it took place in a different world.

If you flipped through the papers last weekend, you probably noticed it.
