Jeannette discusses the crucial topic of the underrepresentation of female CEOs in the business world. Drawing from her extensive experience as a corporate CEO and entrepreneur, she highlights the progress made in gender diversity but emphasises the need for further action. The episode explores the reasons behind the lack of female CEOs, including cultural norms, biases, and outdated organisational policies KEY TAKEAWAYS Gender diversity, equity, and inclusion are crucial for business success, with diverse teams and boards showing higher growth, profitability, innovation, and better decision-making. Cultural norms, biases, and lack of strategic focus contribute to the underrepresentation of female CEOs in top organisations. Organisations must prioritise gender diversity from the top down, hold leaders accountable, and implement inclusive policies and initiatives to support female talent. Challenging biases, providing mentorship, coaching, and role models, and encouraging women to push past self-limiting beliefs are essential for career progression. Embracing creativity, flexibility in policies, and reshaping traditional roles can create a more inclusive environment where women can thrive and reach leadership positions. BEST MOMENTS "The case is absolutely clear. Quite frankly, diverse teams, diverse boards make more money, have a better position in the market, attract more people to the organisation." "There are some preconceptions around as well, right? Around women can't do an engineering job, or women don't make good mechanics, or women don't make great pilots, etc." "And of course, what I would say as well, for all of us women out there, we need to help ourselves as well. We need to help each other."   This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life.

Jeannette is joined by the incredible Georgina Gilbert and Rebecca Openshaw-Rowe, also known as the Antarctic Fire Angels, who recently completed a remarkable journey from Antarctica to the South Pole. Jeannette delves into their incredible feat of endurance, covering the challenges they faced, the preparation involved, and the mental and physical resilience required for such an expedition. They discuss the importance of role models, the support of their partners, and the impact of their journey on breaking gender norms and inspiring others. KEY TAKEAWAYS The Antarctic Fire Angels completed a challenging expedition to Antarctica, showcasing the power of determination and resilience. Georgina and Rebecca serve as inspiring female role models, breaking barriers and proving that women can achieve incredible feats. The support and understanding of their partners were crucial in enabling Georgina and Rebecca to pursue their expedition and career goals. Rebecca's openness about struggling with mental health during the fundraising process highlights the importance of communication and seeking support. The need for early engagement with youth, visibility of diverse role models, and breaking stereotypes in professions like firefighting are essential for encouraging diversity and inclusion. BEST MOMENTS "I think the biggest challenge, certainly, towards the end was fundraising, without a doubt. It was so tough." "I didn't have that many role models growing up, you know. It was only things that I was literally seeing in newspapers back then, you know." "I think visibility is massive. That's the biggest thing. And especially in our roles, I think, as female firefighters, being visible and out in the public eye and around the fire service as well is a big thing." "I've got to say Bex is my current role model, I have to say that."   This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life. It’s never too late to be BRAVE and BOLD and unlock your inner BRILLIANCE.

She has rowed for Great Britain, competed in the Rugby World Cup and Six Nations for Wales and has won numerous world championships in ‘surf life saving‘ and has even broken world records in this event. In November 2017 her sporting career was cut short due to a multiple ligament rupture in her knee after playing a game for Harlequins. At the age of 37 she became a firefighter, fulfilling a lifelong ambition after leaving her previous job as a PE teacher. Changing her career so late in life was a huge risk but her guts and determination to persevere means it has been the best decision she ever could have made. Georgina Gilbert George has been a firefighter for 26 years and currently serves with South Wales Fire and Rescue service. George is an ambassador for gender equality and has an ambition to see more women striving to do whatever job they want to do in life; always ensuring she is visible as a role model for women wanting to embark on a career that doesn’t fit society’s stereotypes. She loves competing at high level and qualified to represent Great Britain’s Age Group Triathlon Team and also has scaled mountains such as Elbrus and Kilimanjaro. George has also recently been nominated for ‘Most Influential LGBT and individual in the Fire Service’ by Excellence in Fire and Emergency two years running.
