Karen Penney has been a rising star in the world of financial services for a while now. She has been named as one of the 100 Women In Business to watch and as the nominated spokesperson for Western Union in the UK, is a ‘go to’ commentator these days for journalists with all sorts of questions.

In our latest podcast Karen explores a host of the difficult challenges about the role of women in business. From graduate to business leader, she offers anecdotes, advice and very personal examples of how she has learnt to get the most out of herself in the workplace whilst maintaining a great work/life balance: everything from how to ask for a pay rise, running ‘drop in’ surgeries for your staff, dealing with redundancy the day you return from maternity leave, and lots, lots more. This is a must listen to podcast!
