As part of our National Inclusion Week activities during 23rd - 29th September, our Women, Parents & Carers and Age EDI networks will host this event to discuss the challenges that can impact career progression. This will be a moderated, virtual panel event.
It’s open to all colleagues to attend - and there'll be something that everyone can take away from it. Regardless of our roles, personal commitments or lifestyle choices, we will all have struggled with something at work at one time or another - and will likely encounter some challenges in the future, which could potentially impact our confidence, or even derail our career plans.
This session is about how you can overcome these challenges – be better prepared and have a level of comfort and a safe place, no matter what comes your way down the line.
The panel discussion, moderated by Virginie Fayolle – Organisational Development Lead and chair of our Womens Network, will last around 45 minutes, and include Angelina Harrop, Business Advisor – GMBGH, Ali Tanvir, Underwriter – GC Business Finance and Rachel Hardy, Personal Assistant – Chief Execs Office.
This’ll be followed by an open Q&A session, where you can share your questions and thoughts with the panel and other attendees.
Attend this event to:
- Get better prepared for the curve-balls and challenges which could potentially knock you off course
- Hear some colleagues’ real-life stories and tips to help become more robust at work
- Hear about approaches to balance caring responsibilities and the impacts at work
- Understand how to combat the pressure and expectation of fitting in with an established team culture
