In this 300th episode Judith Germain speaks to Nick Day MD of the multi -award wining Recruitment Agency JGA and Woosh Raza Director of People, Culture and Inclusion of NCVO. He is also Co-chair of the CIPD Central London Branch. They discuss whether you should really bring your whole self to work from an identity viewpoint; and how you should do it.
First point of discussion is whether it's actually safe to bring your whole safe to work an whether we should be talking about your authentic or best self. How to we handle the multi faceted person, their past, present and future.
Is this really a discussion of inclusivity and acceptance? Is the real question how should the organisation provide a safe space. How professional is the organisation and what is its responsibility around the power dynamics.
This is a lively discussion between Nick, Woosh and Judith where they wrestle with this question and the challenges that it represents.
