Description

In this episode of The Career Confidence Podcast, I'm talking to Joanne Conway, Global Head of Inclusion & Culture about, her non-conventional career path, her learnings along the way and her passion for social mobility and inclusion.

In particular, we talk about:

  • The importance of resilience and adaptability throughout our career.
  • The power of mentorship and asking for help to get to where you want to go.
  • Understanding and navigating the unwritten rules of the professional world.
  • How a traditional approach to education and a career is one path, but other paths exist; lived experience and passion are vital.
  • Joanne's research on privilege and inclusion and the implications for businesses and individuals.
