Ugly Sweaty Men Become CEOs all the Time. Ugly Sweaty Women Don't. by Inga Beale

Inga Beale was appointed CEO of Lloyd's of London in 2014 becoming the first woman to lead the insurance market and the first openly bisexual woman to top the Financial Times list of influential LGBT+ executives.

The public artist Martin Firrell uses language in public space to stimulate debate and promote change with the aim of making the world more humane.

In conversation, Beale and Firrell reflect on the different ways women and men are judged, the relationship between gender and power, and the continuing challenge of inequality in the work place.

Firrell contrasts the contemporary views of Inga Beale with the writing of Olympe de Gouges, the French women's rights activist who demanded equality for women during the French revolution.

Martin Firrell (born 4 April 1963, Paris, France) has been described variously as a cultural activist, a campaigner, a public artist, or benevolent provocateur, stimulating debate in public space to promote positive social change. Firrell has raised questions about the politics of ageing, individual liberty, the right to personal idiosyncrasy, cultural diversity, gender equality, faith, climate change, masculinity, what constitutes a meaningful and purposeful life, hero worship, fair and truthful government, and the quality of human lived experience. He has been described by The Guardian Newspaper, London, as 'One of the capital's most influential public artists'. His mature work has been summarised as 'art as debate'.
