How good is it to spend time with someone who has found her sweet spot and loves her work. This person is indeed, Dellwyn Stuart. Dellwyn is a mother of three and the Chief Executive of the YWCA in Tamaki Makaurau, Auckland. She is in her happy place working with young women in Auckland. Alongside this she is also one of the co-founders of the Mind the Gap campaign (advocating for measuring and reporting on the pay gap in NZ) and created the Women’s Fund, driven from the insight that there was also a gender gap in terms of how much women focused community organisations get funded. Our conversation covers:Describing what the pay gap (how it is different from equal pay) is and being able to talk about it. Measuring the pay gap helps businesses to work out where women might be thinning out. How your manager’s response to you being pregnant can penalise you right from the start. Taking the negative and flipping it to be positive.How we can still be trapped into thinking that Dads need to be the breadwinners but that the younger generation coming through wants it to be different.How we can look overseas to see the examples we can follow.How employers can start the system change by providing equal pay for parental leave for both parents.
