Listen on
Episode notes
Teagan Dowler’s passion for diversity and inclusion evolved early in her career. When a lightbulb moment led to a realisation that her core values were misaligned to a lack of acceptance of difference, she set out to do something about it. I’m very excited to introduce (or reintroduce) you to Teagan on episode 41 of Beneath the Surface.
Teagan is a leadership coach, cultural change specialist and status quo challenger. She’s the author of Rules of the Game: Women in the Masculine Industries and founder of The BCW, aiming to influence individuals, organisations and society to be more accepting, aware and capable.
In this episode, Teagan speaks to her journey through heavy industry and shares plenty of great stories along the way. We dive deep into the concept of unconscious bias and Teagan also shares her view that addressing and defusing the fear associated with the psychology of change is a critical step to building a truly diverse and inclusive workforce.
Teagan is up there with some of the most passionate and proactive diversity and inclusion leaders in Australia’s heavy industries, and it was an absolute pleasure stealing some time out of her busy schedule to chat on the show.
