In this episode, we’re joined by Andrew Jacobs, a learning and development strategist with over 30 years of experience, to tackle the topic of allyship and its real impact. Andrew shares his personal journey of recognising privilege and turning it into meaningful action in the workplace and beyond.
From questioning the performative nature of International Women’s Day to addressing everyday biases in workplace design, Andrew offers thought-provoking insights into what genuine support and advocacy look like.
This isn’t your typical conversation about allyship. It’s a candid exploration of the small changes that create ripple effects, the importance of active sponsorship over passive mentorship, and why impactful action always trumps empty gestures.
Whether you’re a leader, colleague, or advocate in the making, this episode will challenge you to think differently and take purposeful steps toward creating equitable spaces for everyone.
