A really uplifting event.
What unique challenges do women face as they grow their careers and how to tackle them 💪 In a shocking poll, almost 7 out of 10 (69%) everywomanNetwork members don’t currently see themselves as future leaders... This exposes the unique challenges that women face as they navigate the corporate landscape, such as unconscious biases in the hiring/promoting process, limited flexible working options for parents, the stubborn gender pay gap, and a lack of visible role models to show that leadership is a tangible option for women. In a recent roundtable discussion with our everywomanChampions, we examined one by one the systemic barriers that remain, setting out to explore the options for overcoming them… 🔗 Read now: https://lnkd.in/eu6pY6R9 Thank you to our Champions Marta Snopek (she/her), Razvan Bran, Emma Woolon, Jayven Sandy, Angela Melvin, Farah Asemi and Gary McCready for your insightful contributions to this article. #womeninbusiness #everywomanchampions #roundtable #DiscussionPiece #article #ChallengesForWomen
Have you ever passed the opportunity to move internally for a different role? I did. It was prior to #EY and I think I was not ready then (of this is what I told myself). I tend to overthink things, overanalyze all possible scenarios and talk myself out of things. What did change for me was when I had a very supportive boss who encouraged me to risk and take another opportunity. Don’t get me wrong, he was not trying to get rid of of me 😊 and he said: "we will really miss you but it’s a right moment to change and develop yourself in different field". And so I did (thanks Arthur Bryan Liesse for being my mentor and now a friend that really helped me to dream big). The last change of my role in EY I did myself 😊 This time I did not need encouragement; I just knew that DE&I is my dream job and I must at least try or I´ll always regret it. I was really happy to join the everywomanNetwork Champions panel some time back to discuss an important topic of: Tackling the challenges women face as they grow their careers - everywoman: https://lnkd.in/ebk3S6hF I encourage you to read this short article as my fellow champions share good insights and tips around the topic. What strikes me is that according to everywomanNetwork poll almost 7 out of 10 (69%) women don’t see themselves as future leaders. And let me be clear, its not about fixing women- it’s a about creating an environment that everyone can thrive and fulfill their potential. It´s also about mentorship (thanks Joanna Jankovic for being my amazing mentor), inclusive leadership, psychological safety and so much more. So yes, now I can see myself as a future leader and it´s also because I have supportive squad around me, both in work (Doriana De Benedictis) and at home (Hendrik Sandkühler).

2wThank you for sharing. It was an amazing day. Back in 2013 I returned to work when my son was only 12 weeks old! The Transport & Logistics sector offers so many various shift patterns that it’s possible for working mums to work in the industry successfully as well as being mum (the most important job of all!)
