In the May/June edition of Safeguard magazine we pose three questions based on stories in the magazine. One of them is this:
What factors inhibit women in H&S roles from applying for more senior positions? What is your experience?
Feel free to respond here on the Forum, or privately here via a Survey Monkey form.
An edited selection of responses will be published in the July/August edition, but with no names attached. One randomly selected person will receive a prize, namely a copy of the book Head & Heart: The Art of Modern Leadership, by Kirstin Ferguson.
Good point. Anyone wishing to briefly (and anonymously) share an experience can do so here in our survey.
Re the excellent mansplaining chart, at the AIHS conference in Brisbane a couple of weeks ago Kirstin Ferguson talked about the "words to wisdom" ratio: before we speak in a meeting, we should ask ourselves how much value we will be adding per word spoken?
