What a week it's been!   We've had an awesome time celebrating #InternationalWomensDay, sharing stories & tips about how we all can #AccerlerateAction.   Becca gave 5 lucky men simulated period cramps, while interviewing them about gender equality at work.   It definitely gave them a fresh perspective.   And highlighted one of the many inequalities that still exist today.   (It wasn't all about periods).   Jess, Katie, Emma, Chloë-Nicole & ☁️ Antonia also shared advice on 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐚 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐬.   Hopefully, there was a tip in there for every business.   That could be easy to implement quickly.   Helping them take steps now to be a more inclusive, better employer.   Edie & Becca also attended a night at HER Recruitment Network.   Speaking with recruitment leaders about how we pave the path for female recruitment managers.    Finally, Lauren hosted a webinar with 3 leaders in her industry - sharing advice for aspiring women in the battery industry.   It's been busy. But important. And valuable.   Strativ Group is full of incredible, high performing women.   3/4 of our top billers last year were women.   And we're very proud of that!   These leaders are helping shape the future of this company.   So, hopefully "the noise" we've made on socials and our internal conversations will lead to real change.   We all want a fairer, more inclusive & better future.

𝑪𝒉𝒂𝒎𝒑𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑬𝒒𝒖𝒂𝒍 𝑬𝒙𝒑𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔 & 𝑷𝒂𝒚: As it stands, it will take until 2158 to reach full gender parity.   That's awful.   Find your way to compensate fairly. Jess gives the example of the Strativ Group salary matrix which is transparent & solely performance-based. She also tells us about the importance of setting equal expectations, like our family leave policy which offers 9-months paid maternity & paternity. Being there for your children is a equal responsibility. And this policy shows that it's not just Mum who should take time off to support her family. 𝑭𝒍𝒆𝒙𝒊𝒃𝒍𝒆 𝑾𝒐𝒓𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑯𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒔:   Allow everyone to adjust their hours without question. Katie says this is helpful for women for self-care during their menstrual cycle or health-checks. That way, when you're logging on, you can bring your A-game.   𝑪𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒕𝒆 𝒂 “𝑷𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒐𝒅 𝑷𝒐𝒔𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒗𝒆” 𝑾𝒐𝒓𝒌𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒄𝒆 𝑪𝒖𝒍𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆 Normalize discussions around periods and reduce any embarrassment. Provide free menstrual products like tampons, pads, hot water bottles and even menstrual cups. Emma mentioned that it's crazy how a basic necessity like this can cost women up to £200 a year, with these products are still taxed as "luxury" items. 𝑰𝒏𝒄𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝑫𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝑪𝒐𝒅𝒆: Allow people to be comfortable and feel confident in their clothing. Chloë-Nicole told us that the freedom to wear clothing of your choice for women who wanna come into the office - while dealing with body insecurities, bloating, or other - is a bit of a gamechanger. 𝑻𝒓𝒖𝒔𝒕, 𝑹𝒆𝒄𝒐𝒈𝒏𝒊𝒔𝒆 & 𝑹𝒆𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒅 𝑬𝒒𝒖𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒚: Treat 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦 without bias. Trust 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦 to perform. Give 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦 to same levels of opportunity, understanding & support. Recognise and reward based on high performance. Well said ☁️ Antonia. 👏   -----   Hopefully, there's a tip in there for every business. That's easy to implement, quickly.   It's what this year's #InternationalWomensDay is about.   Taking steps now to be a more inclusive, better employer.   #AccelerateAction  

Awesome night at HER Recruitment Network! Edie & Becca joined recruitment leaders to chat all things gender diversity & equality in the space. There was an acknowledgement that the industry has been changing for the better... But we/women still have to push for what we deserve. The night was full of incredible stories & insight! It was amazing to dive into the challenges other women leaders have faced. Hear how they've overcome them. And learn about how we need to navigate our own journeys. There is still a long way to go. (80% of recruitment companies are led by men). But this evening inspired us to think that change is coming. #InternationalWomensDay #AccelerateAction
