Clare Young | DXW
“Confidence is a behaviour, not a personality type. It’s something you can learn!”
Clare Young is a Director with DXW a leading employee-owned digital agency that works with the Public and Charity sectors.
Clare shares her story, how she practices confidence and how that’s transformed her at work.
On ED&I she explains how it’s everyone’s responsibility to understand the problem and take ownership. How recruitment can help address the balance (always happy to help!).
Why it’s important that businesses and teams do everything to support diverse workforces, and what it means to offer genuine flexible working - whether that’s study support or going to the other side of the world to watch the cricket.
She shares her journey and the importance of having the confidence to challenge people correctly.
How DXW have achieved a 50:50 gender split including some practical tips on how you can improve things in your organisation.
And that a business is the people that are in it and not the shareholders.
PS how her skills as a Delivery Lead supported Comic Relief as they raised the small sum of £78 million.
