### International Women's Day 2023

Idioma: en

I would describe the current state of
women in the workplace as dickensian and
what I mean by that is it's the best of
times it's the worst of times there's
still discrimination and bias towards
women I mean I've been in a role where
I've been asked oh you're good at that
can you organize that person's birthday
cake one of the first times I accounted
gender bias in my career I was working
in banking which is a strongly male
dominated environment and I had to lead
client meetings on my own I would go to
the client meeting open the door and
straight away I would see the face of
the person being surprised that I'm 20
years old have long blonde hair not very
tall and I'm a woman because of my work
in technology I primarily work with
teams that are at least 80 percent males
I constantly face biases such as that
I'm talking too much even when maybe I
was not actually talking that much what
meant today they are much more educated
than ever before and are making giant
leaps and strides in their career we
have established ourselves on what was
traditionally considered as highly male
dominated Pursuits be it
entrepreneurship stem or Sports it's not
that we need more mentorship and help
with our pitches and you know little
training and how to do a business case
in a financial model it is that we just
need people to Believe in Us ideas and
our ability to deliver on them pure and
simple for me having a female Network
around me is a great source of
inspiration so I have a number of aunts
and throughout my lifetime they've
always told me to stay true to myself
and be the best version of myself that I
can be to many women have had to Scandal
everything from career family and other
obligations and still made it work the
corporate world could really use some
structural support in the form of you
know maybe flexible hours and more
availability or understanding around
child care and things like that and
maybe more equality with men you know
giving men mandatory paternity leave we
need strong male allies to help support
women in situations where they might
feel isolated the most important thing
is that men set a good example for other
men my ideal future is a future where
women feel more than welcome in the
workplace I want women to not just have
a seat at the table but also to have a
share of The Voice Even if you find
yourself as the only woman Seated on a
table full of men you are you and that
is your superpower instead of
questioning yourself as do I belong here
try to make others understand why you
belong here as a black woman it's very
hard to own your space you should not
let anybody take anything away from you
you should own your voice stand up be
proud make people take note of you a
logical person would have said that we
should have given up that I should have
given up
then again I wouldn't be here today with
a funded climate tech company so don't
give up truly
[Music]
wishing everyone all the women out there
as well as their allies a very happy
International women's day happy
International women's day happy
International women's day

### "A Story Within" - International Women's Day 2024

Idioma: en

throughout my career people may have
questioned my pivots and transitions but
following my passions paved the way to
my success choose another career they
said something less full on less
challenging but when others didn't
believe in me I believed in myself and
it turns out that was all it took my
greatest barriers come from within but
through taking risk finding courage and
advocating for myself I reshaped my own
narrative in a world that demands
Conformity I danc to the rhythm of my
own convictions with an
interdisciplinary mindset I embarked on
a journey to sculp my career into my own
Masterpiece I was told to be less
ambitious that I didn't have the right
background the right accents that I
couldn't be a wife a mother and a leader
so I proved them all wrong often I felt
like my voice wasn't being heard but
then I realized that the business World
needed a voice like mine
within all of us there is a story a
story of tenacity of ambition
determination Innovation resilience and
bravery happy International women's
day international women's
day
