I enjoyed reading your post Lewa and the points that you have shared about how you would further promote gender inclusivity within your organization.  You’ve got me thinking and I’m just curious about a couple of things:

  • You mention that you would visibly reward inclusive behaviour in your organization and I’m wondering what you mean by “visibly reward”.  What does that look or sound like?
  • You mention the possibility of offering paternity leave for men at your organization and I was a little bit surprised as I thought paternity leave was offered at the majority of businesses now.  Is this not currently an option for males at your workplace? I wonder if men have raised this as an objection?

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, it is always so nice to learn from each other.
