Today, on the Take On Board Podcast, we have a special crossover episode. Rosie Wheen, host of the podcast Not in My Workplace, invited me for an interview. Not in My Workplace is a series that aims to be a resource for you and your workplace to become safer, more respectful, and more inclusive. Conversations will focus on how we can prevent and respond to sexual harassment in the workplace.

How can boards act as coaches who work with executives? How do you nail a curious question that shines new insights on workplace safety around the Board table? In this episode, host Rosie Wheen sits down with governance guru, facilitator and coach Helga Svendsen to unpack the vital role of boards in preventing and responding to sexual harassment in the workplace. With over 200 podcast episodes of her fabulous podcast Take on Board and her board experience, Helga shares how diverse, inclusive, and engaged boards can create safer and more respectful workplaces. The conversation delves into boards' responsibilities under Australia’s Respect at Work legislation, the power of diverse decision-making, and how boards can proactively set the tone for a positive workplace culture. If you’re a leader, board member, or aspiring director, this episode is packed with insights on how governance can drive meaningful cultural change.
