RECENT TUNED IN COLUMNS:
Conversations for a Brave New World, presented by academics from the Gender Network at 5.30pm on Thursday, September 7, will broadcast a special featuring a conversation about queer people in leadership, covering the challenges they experience and the perspectives they can bring to leadership roles.
Their guests, Ambulance Tasmania chief executive Jordan Emery and Dr Elise Stephenson from the Australian National University, challenge us to think about how queer people in leadership may face challenges and stigma because of characteristics unrelated to their job or ability to lead.
Both programs show us how social science research are the key to supporting our understanding of humanity, society and the institutions which govern our daily lives.
You can hear both SICS Radio and Conversations for a Brave World monthly on 2MCE. You can also listen to previous episodes on demand at 2mce.org.
