Episode 18: Vick Bain, Gender Diversity & Leadership

Matilda Lloyd & Helen Kuby

Everyone working in the music industry (in any capacity) needs to hear this awesome episode with Vick Bain, Past President of the ISM. We discuss all of the challenges of being a woman in the industry, especially in a leadership role, including being looked over for promotions, imposter syndrome, her experience at Henley Business School and more. We also delve deep into all of Vick's important research, including Counting the Music Industry: The Gender Gap, the ISM's Dignity at Work 2022 report, her ongoing PHD and her non-profit directory of female musicians: The F-List.
