Why do we need to Promote Women’s Entrepreneurship Programs? Women entrepreneurship programs can help in empowering women economically by providing them with the necessary resources, skills, and support to start and grow their businesses. This can contribute to reducing gender disparities in income and wealth distribution., Mr. Farhat Abbas Malik CEO & Founder of Infinite Resources exemplifies this ethos. His dedication to discipline isn't just a personal success strategy; it's a beacon for the next generation. By emphasizing the importance of discipline, he teaches young aspirants that they can shape the future with focus and determination. #BusinessDiscipline #YouthEmpowerment #GuidingTheFuture #CommitmentToExcellence

I have 2 VERY serious questions to ask on this miserable Friday avo: 1. Are you a woman? 2. Are you based in Dublin? If the answer is yes to these Qs get your butt over to The View in Malahide on Tues morning for coffee and listen to me, Aoife O'Brien & Deirdre Carroll discuss female entrepreneurship, equality in the workplace, impostor syndrome and much more. This is a great opportunity to meet like minded ladies and join the conversation on some of the current hot topics. And actually, scrap Q1, (just because it's Friday & I am in good mood), in the name of equality .... you can come if you are a man too!! https://lnkd.in/eyGd2ydp

Think about women's empowerment like helping women gain the confidence and freedom to achieve their goals and dreams, just like successful women like Indra Nooyi, Chanda Kochhar, Kiran Mazumdar Shaw, Hillary Clinton, and Sunita Williams have done. These women faced challenges and fought against unfair treatment to succeed. They show the potential that women have. But not all women have these opportunities. Many still face difficulties because of traditional ideas that men are more important. This is called patriarchy and it affects how people treat women. It's like women are held back by unfair rules. We talk a lot about women's empowerment because it shows how big the difference is between how men and women are treated. We don't usually talk about "men's empowerment" because men have always had more power in society. They've had better chances and more rights for a long time. Women in the Western world had to fight hard for equal rights like voting and owning property. This happened in the 1800s and 1900s. Some men are uncomfortable when women do things equally with them. This can even lead to violence against women. In workplaces, it's often hard for men to treat women as equals. People also have wrong ideas about women. They think women should only take care of the house and not do important things like work. These ideas make it tough for women to get ahead. In India, there's a big problem where people prefer having sons over daughters. This affects how boys and girls are treated from a young age. Boys get more chances and better food and education, while girls are kept at home. Some women succeed despite these challenges, but many are held back by these ideas. The government is trying to help with programs to support women, but there's still a long way to go. More women are doing great things now, in sports, politics, and other areas. We have role models like Sania Mirza, Saina Nehwal, and Kiran Bedi who show that women can break free and succeed. Even though there's progress, we still need to make sure all girls can go to school and learn. It's important to teach everyone, including men, about treating women fairly. As Swami Vivekananda said, we can't make the world better if women aren't treated well. We can't fly with just one wing. We need to pay attention to the needs and dreams of women, because they're a big part of our world.

Bropriating, or stealing and taking credit from a woman's idea when a man repeats or presents an idea that a woman previously expressed without acknowledging her as the originator. Have you seen this happen in your company? "Bropriating" is a term that refers to the act of a man taking credit for or appropriating an idea or accomplishment that originally came from a woman. It is a combination of the words "bro" and "appropriating." This term highlights a gendered pattern where men may dismiss, downplay, or steal credit for the ideas or contributions of women. Bropriating can happen in various settings, such as the workplace, academic environments, or social settings. It can occur when a man repeats or presents an idea that a woman previously expressed without acknowledging her as the originator. This behavior can undermine the visibility and recognition of women's contributions and reinforce gender inequalities. It is essential to promote equal recognition and credit for all individuals, regardless of gender. Encouraging inclusive and respectful communication, acknowledging and amplifying the voices of women, and creating an environment that values diverse perspectives can help prevent bropriating and foster a more equitable and inclusive society.
