Are CXO roles reserved only for men? Of course not! I firmly believe that women have equal potential to reach the CXO level and lead teams effectively. That's what I emphasize upon, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗫𝗢 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿; it's about individual potential. Being featured in a top publication like the Deccan Herald motivates me to nurture future women leaders. For women, balancing work and personal life isn't easy. That's why I offer practical strategies to prioritize self-care without compromising work. Moreover, by identifying their strengths and weaknesses, women can carve their path to the CXO level more easily. With the right guidance and knowledge, I believe women can reach any high position. As a society, we need to change our perspective and offer equal opportunities to women. Want to read the article?

We are in for a treat soon, as Sania is preparing an article on female leadership for Y Entertainment. Here is an uplifting speech from Anila Khalique she found while doing her research: https://lnkd.in/er_6pAnA The most staggering thing I find about it is the reference to McKinsey & Company's research which shows attaining true gender equality could boost the global economy to the point it would add value equivalent to the economies of the US and China combined. Striving towards gender equality and supporting the development of female leadership should surely be embedded into the strategy of any rational and ambitious business. #WomenInLeadership #LeadershipDevelopment #EDI

The Likability Dilemma for Women Leaders, Robin Hauser, TED. "Most of us are not aware of why we don't find strong women likable. There's just something about her that bugs us. But deep inside, at the root of this is an unconscious bias. Bias is a survival heuristic that we inherited from our ancestors. The problem is, it's unconscious. And as humans, we don't have the ability to recognize when we are being biased, even if we can see it in other people. We all, most of us, anyway believe ourselves to be fair, open-minded and unbiased. And yet, I will admit, I too found Hilary's voice to be too shrill. As long as society continues to associate leadership with masculine traits, female leaders will be judged more harshly, even when they outperform their male counterparts. So it's no wonder that in the US, female politicians suffer greatly, as our elections tend to value likability over competency. Women held only 25% of the seats in Congress. The competency/likability dilemma has huge consequences, not just in politics, but also in education and in the workplace, where studies show that women in meetings with both genders are less likely to contribute knowledge. As women we're told to lean in, and yet there's backlash when we do. A recent study shows that women are not as good as negotiating for themselves. And yet, women outperform men when they negotiate on behalf of someone else. This is because women who negotiate for themselves are perceived as selfish, and women who negotiate on behalf of someone else are preceived to be helpful. And a helpful women might be liked more than a women who is assertative, but the helpful women will not be recognized as having what it takes to be a successful leader. Last week I was quoting my speaker fee to a potential client, and when I told him the price, he said to me, "Wow, Good for you. That's a lot. Isn't documentary filmmaking kind of, like, your hobby?" Ouch. As humans, we're limited to what we can do to mitigate our biases. So even if we were able to, say, implement a tool that would bring more women into upper management, it's highly likely that we would still evaluate the performance of those women with biased perceptions." https://lnkd.in/gACbWMXK

💡 Thoughts on #leadership from our CMO Amit Daniel in Authority Magazine: "Women employees in particular shouldn’t find a reason not to apply for something new — instead, we should find the reason why we should apply instead. We should choose to break the glass ceiling rather than crouching under it." Read more of her insights here: https://lnkd.in/gz_ZcW4Q
