Annika Freyer: Men as Allies

Sinopsis

I asked ChatGPT, and it told me that men still hold 70-80% of formal positions of power, across most domains, globally. And because of that very power imbalance, women can’t achieve equality on our own. We need men to be involved, and to use the power our current systems grant them, to  shift things. And that’s exactly what Champions of Change Coalition do, led by today’s guest, CEO Annika Freyer. The Coalition aims to achieve gender equality, advance more and diverse women into leadership, and build respectful and inclusive workplaces. But as we know here at Women at Work, you can’t increase women’s representation without shifting the systems. It’s not about fixing the women.   Annika was appointed as the inaugural CEO of the Champions of Change Coalition in 2016, and has grown the coalition from its Founding Group of 10 CEOs to more than 250 members. And she’s done that while getting herself to Barry’s bootcamp at 5am every morning, and raising two young daughters. I really enjoyed this fun, candid chat wit
