What are the systems getting in the way of women achieving economic mobility? How do we call out and dismantle those systems? What will it take to redesign workplaces to be more inclusive? In this episode we talk to Ruchika Tulshyan, Author of Inclusion on Purpose: An Intersectional Approach to Creating a Culture of Belonging at Work (MIT Press). Ruchika is also the founder of Candour, an inclusion strategy practice.

Best of all, people all over the world have said it helped them stop blaming themselves for supposed imposter syndrome.
