I found your recent article on workplace menopause policies and guidance (issue 86) really interesting. You mentioned having a menopause champion or ambassador. Who would be the best person for this role?
Norma Goldman, founder and director of The Menopause Exchange, replies:
You could choose an employee going through the menopause or someone with an interest in the menopause. This could be a learning and development manager, an equality, diversity and inclusion officer or a health and wellbeing manager. It could also be someone working in the PR or occupational health departments.
