As a Culture and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) practitioner, Kim Flanery-Rye shared her insights on creating a positive culture in organizations during the podcast. She emphasized that leaders should prioritize culture from the beginning, rather than considering it as an afterthought. Kim pointed out that while culture may vary between organizations, it plays a significant role in their success. In smaller organizations, C-level executives have a more direct influence on culture, making it easier to observe and manage. Meanwhile, in larger organizations, creating and maintaining a positive culture may be more challenging due to their size and structure.
The podcast's discussion primarily revolved around gender parity in the workplace and how to audit and address systemic issues that prevent women from succeeding in their careers. We discussed the "leaky pipeline" or "leaky faucet" phenomenon, where women's representation decreases as we move up the leadership positions. We also talked about various factors that may contribute to women leaving their careers, such as the pay gap, lack of parental leave support, and other systemic issues that make it difficult for women to succeed.
We also discussed how women tend to do more event organizing, diversity and inclusion work, and join more ERG groups than men. However, these efforts are often undervalued and not compensated during annual reviews or promotion time, leading to the "leaky pipeline" phenomenon. As a result, mid-level women tend to leave the workforce to start their own businesses due to the difficulty of breaking through the glass ceiling, caregiving responsibilities that still tend to fall on women, and burnout. Finally, we discussed how the World Economic Forum is a platform where discussions about gender equity, climate change, poverty, and justice are happening, and there is a lot of action being taken to address these issues.
