Description

We chat through the key stories shaping Women's Agenda. From the leaders doing the right (and wrong things), to the policymakers shaping the future for women, and the breakthrough moments making a difference and more. This is business, leadership, politics, health and climate from a woman's perspective.

The Women's Agenda Podcast is produced by Agenda Media, publisher of Women's Agenda. You can check out our other podcasts The Leadership Lessons, The Moments That Make Us and The Women's Health Project and more.
