#7 Jimi Okubanjo - Unf*cking toxic work environments
Manage episode 407146086 series 3558197
This week Work Pirates are unpacking (and unf*cking!) toxic workplaces with Jimi Okubanjo. Director of documentary film Vanishing Women: Why Senior Women of Colour are Fleeing the Corporate World, Jimi’s expertise comes from her first-hand experience as a woman of colour in the global workplace and London over 20 years.
This episode is a treasure chest of Unf*cking Work wisdom, with Jimi giving insight on combating toxic workplaces. Join us and dive in to:
- Why work doesn’t need to be a linear climb, and why leaving a job that’s making you sad should never be considered a failure!
- Is your CEO lying to you? And what damage is done when we assume all employees have the same goals at work?
- The importance of doing the work! Why leaders must be proactive in combatting systemic issues and ensuring they pay people for their knowledge.
