In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

Infrastructure - the UK's untapped goldmine for investors? 7:53

14 днів тому7:53

7:53

The Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee voted unanimously in February to cut the Base Rate by 0.25% to 4.5%, with two members advocating for a larger 0.5% cut. Despite inflation remaining a threat, this shift to a more dovish stance highlights the concerns they have over the health of the UK economy. With all this doom and gloom, why would anyone invest in UK plc? There may be just one word for it – infrastructure! What's the infrastructure output forecast and what does this mean for investors? Will the government stick to its plans when it comes to cleaner energy in the UK? Where do we stand when it comes to the AI revolution? Will the national grid infrastructure be able to cope with demand? How are markets reacting?…

Many of us have felt the pressure of prevailing high interest rates over the last few years but it looks like there is light at the end of the tunnel so it’s time to consider whether the message has changed from central banks and what the expectations and implications of the new lower rate environment will be. The trajectory is that interest rates will continue to fall but at what pace? How can we protect our investments in the current economic environment and where are the openings? When it comes to expenditure on AI, have the baked in expectations of growth in some of the mega caps gone too far and what will the actual return on investment be?…

China: Supreme superpower or failing factory of the world? 9:54

33 weeks тому9:54

9:54

Since 1978, China has been a major part of the emerging markets sector but is China now more likely to be heading towards a lost decade and is it time to reevaluate longer-term investment? China's GDP grew by 5.3% year on year in the first quarter of 2024, above market expectations. Over a longer timeframe, China is likely to remain an important cog in the global economy, but the economics, politics and demographics need to stabilise to restore the sector to its former glory and reinvigorate investor interest.…
