In this episode of Look West, we sat down with the Chair of the Legislative Women's Caucus, Majority Leader Cecilia Aguiar-Curry, at the Women Inspire exhibit in the California Museum in Sacramento. She talked with us about the impact near gender parity is having the legislature, the power of the Women's Caucus and what her favorite thing is about having more women in office.

In India, elite law firms offer a surprising oasis for women within a hostile, predominantly male industry. Less than 10 percent of the country's lawyers are female, but women in the most prestigious firms are significantly represented both at entry and partnership. Elite workspaces are notorious for being unfriendly to new actors, so what allows for aberration in certain workspaces? Drawing from observations and interviews with more than 130 elite professionals, Accidental Feminism: Gender Parity and Selective Mobility Among India's Professional Elite (Princeton UP, 2021) examines how a range of underlying mechanisms-gendered socialization and essentialism, family structures and dynamics, and firm and regulatory histories-afford certain professionals egalitarian outcomes that are not available to their local and global peers. Juxtaposing findings on the legal profession with those on elite consulting firms, Swethaa Ballakrishnen reveals that parity arises not from a commitment to create feminist organizations, but from structural factors that incidentally come together to do gender differently. Simultaneously, their research offers notes of caution: while conditional convergence may create equality in ways that more targeted endeavors fail to achieve, "accidental" developments are hard to replicate, and are, in this case, buttressed by embedded inequalities. Ballakrishnen examines whether gender parity produced without institutional sanction should still be considered feminist. In offering new ways to think about equality movements and outcomes, Accidental Feminism forces readers to critically consider the work of intention in progress narratives.

As a recruitment leader, Roisin McCarthy noticed that her team was placing less and less women in data related roles year on year. She kept hearing stories of women being passed over for promotion. So she set on a mission to bring gender parity in the data industry. 10 years later, Women in Data has become a powerful force, advocating for women and creating spaces where they can excel. In this episode, Roisin raconts her inspiring journey, highlights key milestones, from representing the community at influential policy discussions to growing retention rates among senior female leaders. While there's been progress, with women now holding 19% of top data roles, challenges remain, especially in reducing talent loss and bridging the gender pay gap. Roisin's vision is clear: a future where gender parity is the norm, and where Women in Data continues to empower every woman in the field.

In this episode of the "HR Mixtape" podcast, host Shari Simpson sits down with Dr. Brittany Boone, an industrial and organizational psychologist and diversity and inclusion consultant. They delve into the critical topic of unconscious bias in the workplace, discussing its implications even in organizations with strong diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies. Dr. Boone shares her insights on how biases are formed, the importance of self-awareness, and the need for ongoing conversations about bias to foster inclusive workplace cultures. Key Takeaways: Understanding Unconscious Bias: Dr. Boone emphasizes that unconscious biases are not a reflection of one's character but rather how our brains process information and form patterns based on past experiences. The Importance of Self-Reflection: Leaders and employees alike must engage in self-reflection to identify their own biases, which is essential for creating a more inclusive environment. Building a Business Case for DEI: The episode highlights the necessity of demonstrating how diversity and inclusion efforts positively impact organizational performance, employee engagement, and overall job satisfaction. Tune in to gain valuable insights on fostering a culture of inclusivity and understanding the nuances of unconscious bias in the workplace.

In 2015, the world pledged to achieve gender equality by 2030 as part of the U.N.'s Sustainable Development Goals. Nearly a decade later, it's clear the target won't be met, with the World Economic Forum estimating gender parity is still 131 years away. While some progress has been made, particularly in Europe and North America, much of the Global South lags behind—though countries like Saudi Arabia, UAE, Singapore, and Chile are notable exceptions. Achieving real change demands a fundamental shift in thinking and action. That's why we invited Zubaida Bai, CEO of the Grameen Foundation, to join us on New Thinking for a New World. She believes gender equality is not only essential but achievable—if we focus on bold, systemic change.

It hasn't been smooth sailing this summer for Ursula von der Leyen, who was voted in as EU Commission president for a second term in July.  She had asked national capitals to put forward two candidates for her new Commission, one female and one male, so that she could ensure full gender parity in her 27-member college. But some governments have flat-out ignored her request, as other factors are more important to them – renewing a trusted heavyweight who's already in place, or respecting national party-political traditions or conventions. In addition to this challenge to her authority, von der Leyen will have a major political in-tray to manage once her commissioners are eventually confirmed this autumn. Indeed, she herself says that the decisions taken in this new five-year EU mandate will determine Europe's place in the world for the next fifty years.

Cate Campbell competed as part of the Australian swimming team at four consecutive Olympics and has a haul of eight medals (four of them gold) to show for it. But this time around, she's at the Paris Games fulfilling a very different role.   On this episode of Something To Talk About, Cate joins host Sarrah Le Marquand poolside from Paris to talk about the bittersweet experience of shifting from athlete to commentator, and how her experience as an Olympic athlete gives her a unique appreciation for the hard work on display. Cate lays out why she believes the gender parity on display at the 2024 Games will inspire a new generation of athletes – both men and women – and shares her very personal and unique perspective on that race between Mollie O'Callaghan and Ariarne Titmus. She opens up about the bittersweet feelings she has about missing out on the competition this year, the inspiration she draws from Australia's female athletes – who are currently leading the country's medal tally – and her realisation that watching from the sidelines is a tough gig: “This spectating business is hard.” Cate also discusses her plans for the future post-retirement, and why they're likely to involve the 2032 Olympics in her home state of Queensland.  Cate Campbell is part of the Nine Network's Olympic commentary team.
