Women who strongly agree they have a best friend at work are more than twice as likely to be engaged (63%) compared with the women who say otherwise (29%).

To celebrate International Women's day, Nadia Koski and Tiana Madera join forces to discuss what it means to be a female leader in the modern workplace.

In this episode they get into the difference between equity and equality, why it's important to have female leadership to look up to in your workplace, and the important of genuine friendships at work and how you can break the ice and nurture them into the future.

Equality means each individual or group of people is given the same resources or opportunities.

Equity recognizes that each person has different circumstances, and allocates the exact resources and opportunities needed to reach an equal outcome.
