New Video Series: Leading Through Change – Menopause, Leadership and Workplace Support

At FE Associates, we recognise that leadership goes beyond strategy and outcomes. It’s about building a culture that is supportive, inclusive and responsive to the needs of all colleagues.

To drive meaningful conversations around this, we are excited to launch a new weekly video series:
Leading Through Change: Menopause, Leadership and Workplace Support.

Episode 1 – Understanding Menopause: Insights, Experiences, and Empowerment

In the first episode of the series, FE Associates Managing Director Matt Atkinson is joined by Kirsten Trussell, a specialist in coaching and consultancy focused on menopause, leadership and workplace support. Together, they discuss Kirsten’s personal journey with menopause, its impact on leadership retention within the further education sector, and the practical, meaningful changes organisations can implement to better support their teams.

Kirsten’s candidness, deep understanding and practical advice are empowering colleges and training providers to open crucial conversations and foster more inclusive, supportive work cultures.

In this episode, you will hear about:

✔️ The inspiration behind this video series
✔️ Why the conversation around menopause is critical for leadership and organisational culture in FE
✔️ What true leadership support for menopause looks like
