Do you know how to respond to things like “women are too emotional to lead” or what to do when someone’s commenting on a female leader’s clothing instead of listening to what they have to say?

In this episode we’re joined by Dr. Blair Williams, Research Fellow/Lecturer, The Global Institute for Women’s Leadership (GIWL), ANU, to explore how to respond to some of the harmful and hurtful comments we hear about women in leadership.

This episode explores how we can respond to:

- “Women are too emotional to lead”

- “Her voice is annoying”

- *Commenting on female leader’s clothing

- *Comments about having / not having children

- “Male leaders tend to have more authority”

- *Women insulting female leaders

- Gendered language, “She’s a bit of a bitch/Ice Queen”

- “People make fun of male leaders too”
