Virtual Fireside Chat with Anneli Blundell IWD 2023
I know IWD has been and gone, but the need for the focus still remains.
Hence Iโm sharing a recording of a fireside chat I had the privilege to be a part of, on IWD this year.
Lead by the inimitable and always delightful, Belinda Fry from Metcash, we had a brilliant chat about all things women at work.
Why are women's voices overlooked and undervalued?
Communication is a critical workplace skill. It is a way to contribute value, demonstrate knowledge, influence outcomes, build relationships and build your leadership brand โ unless youโre a woman. Then itโs not so straightforwardโฆ
When men speak up, their voices are valued. When women speak up, their contributions are often challenged. This makes being seen and heard a constant battle for women in the workplace.
Why are womenโs voices overlooked and undervalued? Why does society hear women differently when they speak? What can we do about it? Find out in this article.

The Difference Project: The gendered future of work
In this episode, we explored how to begin a new design for the workplace. One thatโs built for a 21st century social and business environment. One that accounts for the roles that men and women play in society, and in the home โ many of which are (either traditionally or biologically) dictated by gender. One that allows women to pursue career goals and make a meaningful contribution to an organisation while ensuring that the needs of carer and homelife are met. Watch the recorded episode here.
