Author: FW April 15, 2026 Duration: 28:01

From passive aggressive emails to a 'not my job' mentality, there are corporate habits that might seem small but can creep up and create a toxic company culture. This panel discussion, recorded live at the FW Leadership Summit, will help you identify workplace culture killers and give you the tools to set about eliminating them. 

With The Mathpath's Aubrey Blanche, disability advocate Anja Christoffersen, FW’s Head of Business Expansion, Ruby Leahy Gatfield and Gippsland Critical Minerals CEO Michelle Wood. Moderated by journalist and presenter Leila McKinnon.

Helen McCabe, founder of the Future Women community, sits down each week for the Future Women Leadership Series. These conversations move beyond simple inspiration, delving into the real and often nuanced hurdles women encounter while advancing into executive roles. You’ll hear from a range of influential voices-CEOs, board directors, and pioneering thinkers-who don’t just share their success stories but unpack the complex decisions, setbacks, and resilience that shaped their journeys. This podcast provides a rare, candid look at the practicalities of building authority, navigating workplace dynamics, and fostering genuine loyalty within a team. It’s about the substance behind the title, offering actionable perspectives that both affirm and occasionally challenge conventional leadership wisdom. Tune in for thoughtful dialogue that recognises leadership is as much about courage and personal growth as it is about strategy. The entire series stems from the Future Women club, creating a direct audio line to the kind of frank discussions and insights usually reserved for its members. If you’re looking to refine your own approach with clarity and confidence, this is a compelling resource.
