Today is the United Nations #internationalwomensday2024. I am delighted to announce the launch of The Women Workplace Index (WWi). I invite you all to join us on March 26. 💥 Nicole Yuen (former colleague at UBS) and I started our first thoughts: - what we can do to elevate women status beyond the agreeable numbers in the Boardroom. - What needs to happen to gauge companies' practices, expand awareness. - What will be the tool and ways to track and make continuous progress. 💥 Our shared passion has since transformed insightful consultation, taking valuable input from so many leaders to enabling us to move talks in to actions. 💥 Sustainability professionals, subject matter experts, a team of research assistants led by global sustainability strategist and analysts, thank you. Together we completed a survey among hundreds of companies in the city. The launch of WWi is a baby step to so much more yet to be done. As a woman I put my personal best to raise awareness and do the right things for the future of humanity... and growth. As we celebrate the International Women's Day, please join me to (at least to think we must prioritise) find ways to promote women's rights, benefits, opportunities; embrace #diversity, #equity and #inclusion through #education, #healthcare, #technology ... and advancement through #policies and engaging the community to address #poverty, #hunger, #healthandsafety ... and the big #ESG issues.
