Discussing how HR can support the transition to hybrid working, and the profound impact this will have for gender equity, Virginia shares her vast experience supporting business to create flexible and inclusive work cultures.

Virginia invites us to consider the part we can play in our own lives, recognising where we can role model and make small changes that together create big impacts.
