“Digital innovation is clearly reshaping our society, economy and industries at a scale and speed like never before. Empowering women to better utilize technology can be a game changer and will make a positive impact across education, healthcare, and ensuring the provision of clean drinking water and energy. If harnessed and applied to its full potential, countries can perform the role of ‘force-multipliers’ in society.
The ray of light is that women now have easy access to education, distance learning courses, financial and banking services, entrepreneurial opportunities, and many more opportunities like never before. For women in the corporate world, technology enables flexible working options, more focused job opportunities and freedom to build financial independence. of which has helped create a stronger ecosystem for women’s personal and professional development. The game is changing – slowly but surely. Personally, I focused on operating from compassion, providing support, being inclusive and adding fun along the way through interactions. Physical and mental wellness became very important areas to focus on to bring our best selves to work and in decisions we make. My organization launched some very focused initiatives on employee wellness through 1:1 coaching which was timed perfectly and helped foster emphasis on employee safety and wellbeing as top priorities.”
