Welcome back to the FIE Student Global Leadership podcast series. Today we’ll hear a panel discussion chaired by FIE faculty member, Graham Box to explore conversations around 'Rethinking Foundations of Leadership for a Diverse World'.

Specifically, these themes will be examined in a panel session that brings together an exciting, accomplished
and, yes, diverse quartet to explore questions such as:
• How is the change to genuinely inclusive leadership possible when power currently resides
in traditional, exclusionary structures?
• What do we know both about the benefits of inclusive leadership and the obstacles to its
evolution and expansion?
• Which strategies are most likely to produce a more inclusive society and which strategies
will be most effective when confronting opposition to this imperative

Our panelists include:
Graham Box (moderator)
Ramzi Fawaz
Sarah Ann Filson
Ken Hassell
Nada Silman

Hello and welcome to our final episode of the first season in the Student Global Leadership podcast series. Today we're pleased to re-introduce Eve Alcock and her session titled Empowering Women as Leaders. We first met Eve on the Changing Leadership panel in episode 3, but she also presented her own individual presentation which was a conference favorite. A key disclaimer, there are 3 one-minute breaks starting at the 18-minute mark which allowed conference participants to participate in the activities as part of the discussion. If you want to skip ahead or don’t need a whole 60 seconds, just fast forward about 1 minute. 

 What an interesting and inspiring session, with some key thoughts not just for women but for everyone. Eve hosts her own podcast called  Rise Up which we’ll link to in our show notes if you want to hear more from Eve. And with that, we wrap up the first season of the Student Global Leadership podcast series. Stay tuned for more podcasts from FIE around leadership, study abroad, internships, and best practices. For now, a fond farewell from all us here at FIE.
