Speaker - Lindsay Stanford Blakworks
Lindsay Stanford from Blakworks, running through the stats for
Aboriginal Employment - We Can Do Better.
Lindsay Stanford joined us this week for a look at Aboriginal Employment. Blakworks is a consultancy firm founded by Lindsay with a solid purpose
"I HELP SAVVY NOT FOR PROFIT LEADERS EMPLOY MORE ABORIGINAL PEOPLE AND HAVE A GREATER IMPACT"
Lindsay says Blakworks through years of her own experiences in the workforce have created systems and methods to help employers identify the barriers in their workplace to aboriginal employment. Develop plans to bring everyone on board to create culturally aware workplaces. We can take control and make a real impact in our community.
The statistics today are not good, with large gaps experienced by Aboriginal People, we can all do our bit, by talking out loud and bringing awareness to the opportunity that having Aboriginal Culture in our workplaces can bring.
Lindsay is running courses for Aboriginal Cultural Awareness for Workplaces, with the next being on the 11th May 2023 at Wyong Neighbourhood Centre. Check in with Lindsay if this session has been sold out as bookings did close on the 5th May. I am sure there will be more in the future, so start a conversation with your colleagues. How would an Aboriginal Person feel coming into your workplace ?
