Today reminds us that we need to take action toward a more equitable and inclusive world. As we celebrate the achievements of women, let's work together to create a better future for all. To all the women out there who wear many hats, from being an amazing mother, sisters, spouses, daughters, executive leaders, and founders, to being tech-savvy, heavily into STEM, and more, know that you are a superpower and my hero!

Today, kicks off Women’s History month! This year’s theme is "Women Who Advocate for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion." The theme acknowledges women who understand that, for a positive future, we need to eliminate bias and discrimination entirely from our lives and institutions.

It’s not a pipeline problem...it’s a culture problem. Building an inclusive work environment isn’t just about increasing numbers. It's about creating a space where women in STEM can thrive, innovate, and lead. At STEAMDivas, we are committed to addressing this through both mentorship and our STEAMDivas Pledge. Through our pledge, we aim to influence corporations and organizations to prioritize gender equality and provide the support women need to succeed in STEM careers. Mentorship is a key part of that journey. By connecting young girls with experienced STEM professionals, we inspire them to reach their full potential, while also advocating for systemic changes that make the tech industry more inclusive. Let’s continue pushing for cultural shifts that empower the next generation of women in STEM.

As we wrap up Women's History Month, let's take a moment to reflect on the journey towards diversity, equity, and inclusion. This month is not just a celebration of women's achievements, but a reminder of the work that still needs to be done to create inclusive spaces where every voice is heard, respected, and valued. Together, let's continue to learn, grow, and activate change that resonates beyond this month. We can honor the legacy of our ancestors, like my great-great-great grandmother Angeline Terrell (I posted about her earlier this month), by dedicating ourselves to creating a more equitable world for all. To me, this picture of myself and two intelligent and powerful young women from UWC Maastricht , Elvira and Mercy, at the Microsoft office perfectly represents this mission. It's a reminder that the future is in capable hands and that harnessing the power of DEI can change the technology and corporate sectors for the better. Let's keep pushing forward towards a more inclusive and equitable world. #WomensHistoryMonth #DEI #Inclusion #Equity

As my daughter turns two, I needed to rethink how I view today's business concepts. It is time to embrace feminist principles and values in leadership. As women break barriers and rise to the top, we're reshaping business culture with equality, inclusivity, and empathy. Feminist leadership prioritizes diverse voices, collaboration over competition, and measures success by positive impacts. It challenges traditional power dynamics, promotes mentorship, and advocates for equality policies. By fostering a culture of care and empowerment, we're not just redefining success but creating more inclusive, sustainable businesses for all to thrive.

Today is International Women’s Day, and today we are celebrating everyone who advocates for equality, both in the business world and in life.  This isn’t a day about elevating women above men; it’s a day where we should look at where we’ve come from, and the journey ahead of us all to get to a point where we all enjoy true equality.  Women face certain challenges in the business world that men do not; that fact is undeniable. As is the fact that women are underrepresented in leadership roles. But instead of getting upset about this and blaming the wrong people, let’s take positive action to challenge the belief systems and barriers that hold women back.

I will be taking a break to discuss my holistic approach to project management and team building to celebrate 👉Women’s History Month 2024.👈 This year's theme strikes at the core of societal progression: “Women Who Advocate for Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion.” This year, we celebrate the unrelenting women across the United States who have dedicated themselves to dismantling the barriers of bias and discrimination, envisioning a future where justice and equality are not just ideals but lived realities. These women, hailing from diverse backgrounds, understand that true equality cannot be achieved on an uneven playing field, and thus, they tirelessly advocate for fairness across our institutions and social fabric. As we delve into their stories and contributions, we not only honor their work but also recommit ourselves to the collective pursuit of a world where every voice is heard, and no one is left behind. This article aims to highlight the relentless efforts of these women, recognizing their role in shaping a more inclusive, equitable, and diverse society for EVERYONE! Who will you honor this year?  📣 https://lnkd.in/gaFmnUi3 📰 https://lnkd.in/g8VvXnxQ #WomensHistoryMonth2024 #EquityDiversityInclusion #AdvocateForChange #EqualityForAll #BreakTheBias #InclusiveSociety #HearEveryVoice #CelebrateWomen #EmpowermentThroughUnity #FutureIsInclusive #VoicesForEquity
