Don’t Fix Women: The practical path to gender equality at work

Joy Burnford was a speaker at the Foodservice Equipment Association conference back in November 2022 where she shared some of the findings from her book Don’t Fix Women: The practical path to gender equality at work’. In this #1 bestseller book, gender equality trailblazer Joy reveals how achieving gender balance at work isn’t about ‘fixing’ the women, it’s about changing the system. Packed with practical recommendations, extensive research and interviews with CEOs, HR professionals and diversity and inclusion specialists, it's a route-map for business leaders seeking to improve gender equality, develop a truly diverse, modern leadership culture, and reap the rewards that this brings.

“This book is exactly what is says it is: a very practical guide to the structural issues in workplaces and society that have blocked women’s progress, and a toolkit with ideas for fixing them. The USP of this book, distinguishing it from many others in the same genre, is the inclusion of case studies and tips from many senior UK business leaders.”  The Financial Times: Business books: what to read this month, November 2022
