After a year spent having our plans foiled, we’re in need of some flexible goals. We still don’t know what the new year will look like, but one thing we do know is that having markers in place can transform our wellbeing.
Founded by Jo Whitfield, CEO of Co-op Food, we’re a social enterprise focused on increasing female representation in senior roles.
We do this by coaching, inspiring and empowering women so they’re ready and able to grab hold of senior roles. We also work to challenge bias and help everyone in the industry understand the importance of a diverse workforce.
On our podcast, we talk to people from all areas of the grocery industry to learn about them and their careers.
It’s our ambition to help everyone in the industry understand the importance of a diverse workforce; if we do that, maybe we’ll be able to create one.
Sharing first-hand experiences from people in the industry, talking about the challenges women are facing, and exploring the positive change we can kickstart.
Our events are a big part of what we do. Throughout the year, we travel around the UK to bring together and inspire our members.
We’re hosting events in Manchester and London throughout 2020. Stay tuned for more information.
We’re building a network to bring to bring people together, start conversations and see more women in leadership.
