Do you find it challenging to stand out and be heard in a male dominated work environment? If so, you're not alone - and no, there's nothing "wrong" with you. Unbeknownst to many women in the workplace, there are a number of hidden environmental and cultural factors that hold them back from accelerating in their careers compared with their male counterparts. In this episode of Stand Out Get Noticed, I am thrilled to be chatting with author, speaker and trainer Anneli Blundell. Known as the People Whisperer, Anneli is on a mission to humanise the leadership landscape and change the way we see each other. In this conversation, we explore the challenges facing women in the workplace, specifically when it comes to communication and leadership styles. You'll learn what the barriers are, why they exist, and how to navigate them. Show notes are at www.thecmethod.com/299.
