“It is the responsibility of each one of us to learn and understand how people have different experiences in their lives”
In this week’s episode, I interview Tala Hassoun – an international development and humanitarian expert, and gender, diversity and inclusion lead facilitator.
We discuss:
- What intersectionality is and why it matters in the workplace
- Tala’s own experiences as a migrant to the UK, woman of colour and young leader
- How leaders can best support people who face additional barriers because of their identities
- Creating a safe environment to learn about intersectionality, share experiences and support others.
- What individuals can do to help create a diversity-supportive workplace
Tala is passionate about influencing organisational change by ensuring an inclusive culture and driving transparent dialogue across differences.
