Beyond Good Intentions A Man’s Journey into Active Allyship with Women – with Andrew Elliott

What does it look like when a man in leadership chooses not just to talk about gender equity… but to live it?
Andrew Elliott could have stayed comfortable. Instead, he joined his company’s women’s network, listened without defensiveness, and started bringing other men into the conversation.
In this deeply human conversation, we explore allyship beyond slogans and soundbites. The moments that shifted Andrew’s perspective, the mistakes he’s learned from, and the small, everyday actions that make the biggest difference.
Whether you’re a leader wanting to use your privilege for good, or someone inviting others into the work of inclusion, this episode is for you.
🎧 The Organisational Inclusionist. Honest conversations about diversity, equity, and inclusion that go beyond corporate tick-boxes.
