Alice Derbyshire
I want my kids to go to work and see a balance of men and women at every level of the organisation. To see role models that look and feel like them; to know that it’s possible to succeed regardless of their gender. I work with businesses who care about this too; supporting you to get structural balance from the bottom to the top.
