In this episode of The Workplace Podcast, William Corless sits down with Kweilin Ellingrud, Director of McKinsey Global Institute and Chief Diversity Officer for McKinsey Globally, to discuss her newly released book "The Broken Rung"!
Just launched on 11th March, this timely book (co-authored with Lareina Yee and Maria Del Mar Martinez) couldn't be more perfect for International Women's Day month. Our conversation explores:
- Why the "broken rung" at the entry level impacts more women than the glass ceiling
- How experience capital compounds across your career
- What makes an organisation truly healthy for career growth
- The power of bold moves vs early moves in your career journey
- Ways to combat workplace biases that hold women back
Kweilin shares practical strategies to overcome career obstacles and build the skills needed for success in today's changing workplace. Whether you're early in your career or helping others navigate theirs, this episode offers invaluable insights!
