It's International Women's Day! And with the UN Chief declaring we're seeing the 'mainstreaming of misogyny' we're examining how real, passionate and tireless action leads to monumental change for women.Lawyer, advocate, survivor and Dharug woman Karen Iles joins the discussion as we examine the significant recommendations handed down by the Australian Law Reform Commission this week that could seriously change things for victim-survivors of sexual assault, the majority of whom are women.Less than 1 per cent of perpetrators are ever held as solicitors and advocates for victims/survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence, leveraging her legal expertise and public platform to drive systemic change.The ALRC found that with one in five women and one in 16 men experiencing sexual violence since the age of 15, fewer than one in ten such incidents are reported to police. From there, 75 to 85 per cent of such reports do not proceed to charges, and even fewer go to court. As such, the ALRC has outlined a roadmap for fixing the justice system, including 64 recommendations for meeting the twin goals of access to justice and accountability. Read more on the findings here.Karen joins Women's Agenda co founder Angela Priestley for this ep, who also shares why every day is International Women's Day on Women's Agenda.About Karen IlesKaren is Founder of Violet Co Legal & Consulting, Karen and her practice provide legal advice and representation to victim/survivors.

We're republishing our episode with Sal Naseem ahead of our new season which starts this Thursday, 27th February. This episode launched in the lead-up to Christmas 2024 and we are incredibly proud of it. We wanted to give our listeners, another chance to listen and to bring it to the top of everyone's feeds. Trigger warning: This episode contains descriptions of racial abuse, workplace bullying, and discrimination which some listeners may find distressing In this powerful episode, Sal Naseem, former Regional Director for London at the Independent Office for Police Conduct, shares his extraordinary journey of leading change within policing oversight during some of the most challenging cases in recent history, from Wayne Cousins to the Sarah Everard case. He discusses how maintaining your values and moral compass is crucial when pushing for systemic change, even in the face of intense resistance. In his role as Regional Director for London at the Independent Office for Police Conduct, Sal spent nearly a decade overseeing some of the most high-profile police misconduct cases. Recognised as one of the top 10 voices on anti-discrimination on LinkedIn and named in the Diversity Power List 2023-24, Sal has contributed to several BBC documentaries and is a fellow of the Royal Society of Arts. Through his deeply personal account, Sal shares vital lessons about leading change in complex systems: Why finding common purpose with unlikely allies is crucial for driving meaningful change The importance of approaching leadership with humility and leaving ego at the door How to maintain your values when faced with systemic resistance The true cost of driving change and the importance of self-care Why exceptional leadership is rooted in consistent character both inside and outside work One of Sal's most powerful insights is that "to lead in a values-led way and to lead in a true sense is hard because you have to make hard choices." His experiences demonstrate how maintaining your moral compass can guide you through the most challenging leadership decisions. Sal's new book, "True North: A Story of Racism, Resilience and Resisting Systems of Denial" is available on Amazon and in all good bookshops.

Mutuality-the Future of Trust: The Executive's Handbook, Enabling Mutuality to Cognitively Transform Organisations In today's organizations and society, two major challenges stand out: declining trust and the need to adapt to increasing complexity. Research highlights a shift from judgment and dependability to relational trust, built on mutuality—principles fostering deep social bonds through care, support, and shared responsibility. True mutuality requires cognitive evolution, not just behavioral change. After two decades of research, we've identified six archetypes that hinder relational trust, limiting safe and productive workplaces. This book offers practical strategies to navigate challenges, drive transformation, and boost organizational effectiveness. Matthew Byrne is a University of Technology Sydney and Harvard graduate and works with the Australian Graduate School of Management as adjunct faculty and Program Director of the iconic General Manager's program. Matthew specialises in aligning personal strategies with corporate aspirations, equipping executives to envision and seize value through innovative leadership. He empowers leaders to navigate economic challenges proactively, optimising financial and human capital for enhanced organisational success. Matthew has been collaborating with Denis Jenkins for over 15 years in corporate education and helping dysfunctional corporations engage their people to better build corporate trust and move managers from process-thinking to strategic-thinking. Denis Jenkins is a pioneering figure in the field of neuroplasticity, known for his innovative approach to transforming neuropathways through cognitive training. Beginning his career as an educator in the Australian school system, his passion for helping students with learning difficulties unlock their full potential led him to collaborate with Helga Rowe from the Max Planck Institute in pioneering advancements in learning acceleration and understanding learning dysfunction. Recognised with the Australian Centennial Medal for his significant contributions to learning and behavioural change, Denis continues to work with individuals ranging from high school students to CEOs, empowering disadvantaged learners to become effective leaders in both communities and organisations. The executive leadership blueprint in building trust and strong organisational cultures is the foundation of his work.

Without relational trust, commitment and collaboration suffer. Mutuality is the Key to Trust (Not the Other Way Around) Organizations struggle to build trust because they focus on measuring it rather than creating it. Mutuality—shared understanding and support—lays the foundation for trust. Leaders should start conversations about mutuality instead of trust, as the latter can be polarizing. Cognitive Development Shapes Workplace Relationships Trust and mutuality depend on how people process information. Organizations often fail because they overlook cognitive differences in problem-solving and decision-making. Leaders must recognize and support these differences to create effective, cohesive teams. Mutuality Requires Intentionality, Especially in Remote Work The pandemic proved that mutuality strengthens teams, but remote work removes the informal moments that naturally build trust. Leaders must deliberately foster mutuality by understanding who their employees are, not just what they do. Workplace Structures and Policies Can Undermine Trust Many corporate policies and hierarchies are built on distrust, delegating tasks without granting authority. Instead of enforcing rigid structures, organizations should prioritize mutuality—encouraging responsibility, diverse thinking, and proactive problem-solving.

Clare County Council is set to write to the Government to request that Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder is officially recognised as a disability. The HSE estimates that up to 7.5% of the population are living with the condition, which occurs when parental exposure to alcohol affects the developing brain and body of children in the womb. The headquarters of FASD Ireland is based on O'Connell Street in Ennis and elected representatives will now receive a workshop so they can better inform constituents about the disorder and supports available. Shannon Banks Sinn Féin Councillor James Ryan says the lack of disability status has become a barrier to clinical treatment.
Interviews with pioneers in business and social impact - Business Fights Poverty Spotlight
How can we measure impact and outcomes from social programmes that work for business? Our Social Impact Pioneer today believes that ESG initiatives need a unified impact measurement scale – impact per dollar. Meet Gilad Tanay, Founder and Chairperson of the ERI Institute. “Impact per Dollar gives investors a tangible percentage figure or impact unit of a particular initiative, i.e. how many people lifted from poverty per $10k invested.” Says Gilad. Gilad founded the ERI - which stands for the Effective Research for Impact – and that is what they do. ERI is a pioneering research organisation dedicated to identifying and maximising “Impact per Dollar” in philanthropy, ESG investing, with business and global development initiatives. With a background spanning academia and high-impact consulting, Gilad's work has informed strategies for governments, major NGOs, and philanthropic funds worldwide. Before establishing ERI, Gilad co-founded and served as a director of Academics Stand Against Poverty (ASAP) and lectured on the Global Justice Programme at Yale University. Recognised for his insights on global inequality and poverty alleviation (including a TEDx talk at Yale – see below for links), Gilad left a traditional academic career to solve tangible, high-stakes problems. His approach centres on creating unified, evidence-based impact measurement frameworks—tools that empower investors, companies, and donors to truly understand the return on their social investments. In this conversation, we'll unpack why the current ESG landscape often fails to deliver systemic change, and how “impact per dollar” can revolutionise social impact. Gilad discusses how unified metrics—similar to a financial ROI—let funders identify which initiatives genuinely lift communities out of poverty. He highlights the importance of direct cash transfers, skill-building programs, and fair labour practices to break the poverty trap, emphasising that businesses can become powerful agents of change when they address root causes rather than apply superficial fixes. Get ready for a thought-provoking dialogue on aligning profits with purpose, the urgent need for standardised impact metrics, and how the business sector can seize its unique position to tackle the world's most devastating poverty-related diseases and inequalities. If you've ever wondered how to make social impact capital more transformative, this episode is your roadmap to higher-impact social investments.

In the second episode of the series Navigating Hostile Environments, Julia is joined by Autumn Phillips, a veteran journalist and newspaper editor with over 20 years of experience. Autumn reflects on the challenges of leading in the high-pressure, male-dominated world of newsrooms. She shares how her leadership journey was shaped by the need to prove herself to skeptical teams while navigating the "glass cliff" phenomenon—an environment where women are often given opportunities only in undesirable or failing roles. "By definition, being the editor of a newspaper means you're in a toxic environment whenever you walk into a newsroom. You're not just handed respect; you have to earn it every day," says Autumn. Autumn discusses how she overcame the "man up culture" of her early career and learned to lead authentically by balancing empathy with decisiveness. She highlights the importance of fostering trust, creating spaces for constructive dialogue, and being fully present for her team. Listen to this episode to find learnings for anyone striving to lead with integrity and resilience in environments that test their limits.

Recognised as Journalist of the Year by the North American Travel Journalists Association, Autumn combines her passion for storytelling with a love of adventure and community building.
Have you ever wondered how scammers succeed? What tempts people to fall into their traps, and how can we protect ourselves? Today, I’m excited to dive into this topic with my incredible friend, mentor, and business coach, Mike Johnston. This is part one of a very special three-part series on scams—a topic that’s deeply personal for me, because I was scammed. This series was recorded months ago. At the time, I wasn’t even sure I had been scammed. A whirlwind of revelations followed, including legal proceedings involving the individual who scammed me, someone operating under the names Tiffany Black or Tiffany Bentley. Authorities now believe many other victims have yet to come forward. If you think this sounds familiar or know you’ve been affected, please contact the Tweed Heads Police Station in Australia to share your story. Scammers thrive on silence, and by speaking out, we can prevent others from becoming victims. In this episode, Mike and I share our personal experiences with scams, along with valuable insights and strategies for protecting yourself. We’ve also included updates on how to spot common scams and ways to avoid emotional traps. If you have been a victim too, let me remind you: it’s not your fault and you are not alone. Scammers are skilled at making you feel to blame. And to those who may be engaging in harmful practices, I urge you to reconsider, the ripple effects of your actions are far-reaching. So grab a cup of tea or coffee, settle in, and enjoy this candid conversation. Let’s learn, grow, and move forward together. Without further ado, here’s Mike Johnston.

*) Israel kills at least nine in Lebanon, violating ceasefire Israel launched airstrikes on southern Lebanon, killing nine people and wounding three others amid a fragile ceasefire violated by Tel Aviv, according to Lebanon's Health Ministry. The attacks targeted the villages of Haris, where five were killed and two wounded, and Tallous, where four people lost their lives and one person was wounded. Israel has breached its ceasefire with Lebanon around "100" times since the agreement went into effect last week, according to CNN. *) Türkiye closely following developments in Syria: Erdogan President Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced that Türkiye is closely monitoring the renewed clashes between the Bashar al Assad regime and armed opposition groups in Syria. He emphasised that Ankara is taking necessary measures to address the escalation. President Erdogan reaffirmed Türkiye's commitment to regional stability, saying, “We remain ready to do whatever we must to extinguish the fire in our region.” *) Zelenskyy: Ukraine wants to retake territory under Russia through diplomacy Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that Kiev aims to reclaim territories under Russian control, including Crymea, through diplomatic means. “Our army lacks the strength to take back some territories, like Crymea. That is true. We do have to find diplomatic solutions,” Zelenskyy said during an interview with Japan's Kyodo News. He emphasised that diplomatic negotiations would only proceed when Ukraine feels “strong enough” to deter further military actions by Russia, ensuring a stable resolution to the conflict. *) Bangladesh denounces attack on its consulate in India Bangladesh has strongly condemned a violent attack on its consulate in Agartala, the capital of India's northeastern state of Tripura, calling the incident preplanned. Protesters from the Hindu Sangharsh Samiti stormed the premises of the Bangladesh Assistant High Commission, vandalised the flagpole, and burned the Bangladesh national flag.

This week Em and Michael are sitting down with one of Em's besties, Zambian-born Australian journalist, historian, author and filmmaker Santilla Chingaipe, for an eye opening chat about her new book that is rewriting the history of this country. Recognised by the United Nations in 2019 as one of the most influential people of African descent in the world, Santilla has spent the last 7 years researching and writing her debut non fiction book ‘Black Convicts' which is in stores now. ‘Black Convicts' builds on the research Santilla did for her critically acclaimed and award-winning documentary ‘Our African Roots'which is still streaming on SBS On Demand.
