#60: Breaking Barriers Today: Creating Cultures That ‘Work’ For Everyone With DEI Expert Belinda Riley
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Have you ever asked yourself: How do I be successful in a workplace which isn't designed for me?
Today, we're talking about the barriers ALL underrepresented groups face (including men) and how we can create workplaces that 'work' for everyone.
I'm joined by Belinda Riley -- a Diversity, Equity & Inclusion specialist, speaker and Founder of Beyond The Barriers.
What I love about Belinda’s story is how she’s combined her experience leading culture change with her training as a clinical hypnotherapist. Her work tackles DEI at both a systemic and individual level to create lasting, meaningful change.
Because what she noticed working with talented, accomplished women was how often self-doubt held them back, drove them to prove themselves or question their success.
With backgrounds supporting professional services firms and high-performing leaders, Belinda and I share a similar philosophy -- that true transformation starts from the inside out.
In this powerful conversation that will challenge your thinking, we explore how she's built this incredible career and her unique approach to DEI.
Discover how you can create culture change and address imposter syndrome in your organisation, team and own career.
You'll learn:
- How Belinda made the bold move from a high-flying corporate career at EY to starting her own consultancy
- The REAL reason high-performing women experience imposter syndrome despite their success -- and how to overcome the barriers holding you back
- What most organisations are getting wrong and the single DEI investment to prioritise above ALL else
- A controversial take on the quotas and targets debate -- and whether they help (or hinder) progress
- 3 sure-fire steps to progress your career in a workplace which wasn’t designed for you
- Why the voices of male allies are 6 x more influential and the ONE action every leader can take right now to drive DEI in their teams
So hit play NOW -- and let’s dive in!
