Welcome to the 253rd episode of the award-winning Diverse Minds podcast. This month’s theme is all about politics. This episode is an election special: the possibilities for EDI.
I’ll be looking at key issues political parties are currently focusing on, what I hope to see from the upcoming election, and why companies should face penalties for unequal pay gaps.
