Dr Rachel Widdis is an expert in the field of business and human rights, and has spent over a decade working with international organisations, advising companies and also teaching as an adjunct Professor in this field at Trinity College in Dublin. 

This week, Rachel joins Bex for an open and honest talk about her career journey from finance to human rights and business, what it's like to see programmes tackling human rights risks - such as human trafficking - in action on the ground, and how to maintain a healthy work-life balance when working on challenges we're deeply passionate about. 

Join us to gain insight into the practicalities of implementing HRDD programmes in businesses, how to secure leadership support and successful buy in for projects, and top tips for leading a consulting team with confidence. 

This episode is tailored for sustainability professionals, or those who'd like to work in the field. However, all listeners are very welcome.
