At a recent Women in Construction conference, EVR’s Director got chatting to a group about the use of quotas in recruitment in order to address the huge lack of representation of women in the sector.
Amazing talks from @Barbara Res (Vice President at Digibuild Sortware) and @Edward McAlpine, (Chairman of Sir Robert McAlpine) got us all thinking about the situation and what could be done.
Rhian was delighted therefore when @Michelle Hands (Director, NJ Engineering) contacted her recently and asked to discuss quotas as part of her series of podcasts “She Who Dares, Wins”.
Apparently, Rhian had actually managed to change someone’s mind on something – turns out there is a first time for everything! Rhian had a lot of fun doing this and you can listen here: https://anchor.fm/shewhodareswins
