This week, we're going to be talking about what men can do to support women in tech and telecoms. I just want to start off today by being really, really clear about where we stand at the moment with the lack of gender parity, the gender pay gap and the lack of gender equality, we don't put any of the blame on men, this isn't a judgment on their position, not at all.

But there are more John as CEOs than there are women, there is a 136-year gender pay gap and there are still numerous complaints around sexual harassment. So, men need to be part of the solution because women will never achieve equity in the workplace or in life if they're the only gender working towards it. 

Here are the highlights:

• (05:12) Understand what privilege is
• (07:45) Gender and equality come up in more than one form
• (10:46) Advocate for fair workplace policies
• (14:02) Take the parental leave
• (14:51) Offer to mentor or sponsor
• (16:52) Be mindful of harassment
• (18:09) Give women credit for their ideas
• (20:10) Don’t interrupt 
• (21:16) Speak up
