About this listen
In our first episode of Barely Legal, Morally Wrong, Alix Meekison and Mandy Laurie unpack the Astronomer CEO scandal. Mandy, head of the employment team at Scottish law firm Burness Paull LLP, looks at the legal side in plain English what the rules actually say about consensual relationships at work, disclosure duties and conflicts of interest. Alix coming from her decades of experience in HR, digs into people and culture power dynamics, whistleblowing, how colleagues are affected and why leadership behaviour sets the tone.
Along the way they compare other recent CEO stories and ask why today it is often the boss who goes. Is this accountability overdue, performative, or both.
Expect straight talking, practical takeaways and one simple question at the end was it barely legal or morally wrong.
