Inspiring Dads - a route to gender equality? - (tHRive at Work) Podcast Details

Description

Hello and welcome to tHRive at work! Today we are discussing the topic of "How employers can support men to be great fathers without sacrificing a great career." with Ian Dinwiddy. We wanted to delve into this subject as we find a lot of the time initiatives around gender equality in the workplace are more so aimed at women, with Ian's focus being on men, we wanted to have a look at what can be done to support men and dad's within a workplace.
