Elaine advocates that to win a business case and create change, we need to win hearts and minds, and to do this, we must give a bit of ourselves. Starting with cataloguing your life and what you’ve learned along the way, Elaine describes how to adopt this approach and how it can help you achieve your goals.

Discussing the momentum in creating representation in the workplace, using your sphere of influence and harnessing collaborative ways of working, Elaine shares her vision for how we work together in the years to come and encourages you to think about one thing that you, uniquely, can do.
