Feminist Leadership: Unveiling Feminist Leadership (1/3)

Show notes

In the first episode of our 3-part series, we embark on an exploration of feminist leadership. What exactly is it, and what is it not? Join us as we uncover the beliefs and principles that underpin this transformative leadership approach. For this, we’ll hear from two remarkable women who've dedicated their lives to feminist causes. Srilatha Batliwala, a lifelong feminist activist and scholar from South India, shares her insights, emphasizing that feminist leadership goes beyond mere gender identity. Elena Ghizzo, co-founder of the Feminist Hiking Collective, reveals how feminist leadership challenges existing power structures and offers a fresh perspective on leadership.
