In this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Construct Law Group director Aleisha MacKenzie and special counsel Crystal Ray about the lack of support that women have felt from employers over the years, why it is so critical in the modern age to identify ways to better support female professionals, and the dangers of not doing so for firms and their leaders.

MacKenzie and Ray also delve into the various ways their firm looks to support women and their development, why it is essential for leaders to recognise the moral and business imperatives of doing so, the flow-on benefits that firms will experience, and why the profession as a whole will be richer for facilitating greater workplace support.
