Elected as Labour MP for Peckham in 1982, Harriet Harman bucked the trend by not only joining a House of Commons which was 97% male, she also hit the work / life balance motherload by having three children while in Parliament. A bastion of women’s rights, introducing the National Childcare Strategy, the Equality Act and changing the law on domestic violence, her autobiography is a powerful insight into changing the women’s politics landscape from within.

We talk a lot about the gender pay gap, but what about the gender ambition gap? BCG dispel the myths surrounding the subject – have a read and see how it correlates – or otherwise – to your own experience.
