International Women's Day and the Role of Women in Promoting Sustainable Development! As women, we all have dreams of living a gentle, happy, and beautiful life. But women also have aspirations to create, contribute, and a meaningful life. Woman is one of the most heavily affected population groups by global climate change, however, the role of women is increasingly being recognized in economic development, especially in the green economy and sustainable development. We would like to express our gratitude to Linda Rae, General Manager in charge of Energy and Digital of General Electric - GE, for her participation in the Panel Discussion of the Vietnam Singapore Board Forum 2023, which focused on the Role of Women in promoting sustainable development. Linda took a long flight from the US to Vietnam to participate in the valuable discussion - The discussion of two CEOs (Mary Pham - VIETSTAR CEO & LINDA - GE USA) with the same mission, namely "Sustainable Development." https://lnkd.in/gVAb6ufT #GE #VIETSTAR #SustainableDevelopment #GreenFinance #VSBF #GreenEconomy

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMENS DAY Today, as we come together to celebrate International Women's Day, we honour not only the achievements of women but also recognize the immense potential they hold to accelerate progress in every aspect of society. This year's theme, "Invest in Women: Accelerate Progress," serves as a powerful reminder of the transformative impact that empowering women can have on communities, economies, and the world at large. Investing in women is not merely a matter of moral obligation; it is an essential strategy for driving sustainable development and achieving lasting change. When we speak of women in leadership, we recognize the trailblazers who have led nations, corporations, and communities with grace, wisdom, and strength. In the realm of energy, women have played a crucial role in driving innovation and sustainability.

👩 Happy International Women’s Day - to all the women across the globe and, most importantly, to the women leading many important initiatives here at CORE Markets - pictured below with a few notable absentees! The space that we work in, like many others, is still often male-dominated and we collectively have a long way to go. It’s encouraging however to see a growing female participation the renewable energy, carbon and climate technology sectors – a positive and critical shift that we continue to support. So as our team continues to grow, so too will the gender balance within our own organisation. We spoke to some of our team on the eve of International Women’s Day about their experience working in the industry: “I’ve recently joined CORE Markets as the first female in the markets team. The difference in gender numbers is still real in the industry, but not when it comes to opportunities I'm seeing.” “It's an honour to work with a team that's always adapting to new requirements as we grow and creating means of sustainability. I encourage other women to consider joining this dynamic space.” #InternationalWomensDay #WomenInSustainability #Resilience #Leadership #SustainableFuture

𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧: 𝐀𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬 It’s International Women’s Day today, and it’s essential to recognize the invaluable contributions of women across all spheres of society. Women exhibit remarkable versatility, seamlessly fulfilling roles as mothers, providers, caregivers, educators, and more. However, regrettably, some outdated perspectives in certain regions and cultures, in some parts of the world have relegated women to domestic roles, undermining their potential to positively impact society. This year's International Women’s Day theme encourages us to Invest in Women and Accelerate Progress, this serves as a reminder of why inclusivity and empowerment of women are crucial. Investing in women isn’t just a moral imperative; it’s a strategic decision that accelerates progress. Women possess innate managerial skills and resilience, making them formidable agents of change when provided with the necessary resources and opportunities. Therefore, let’s celebrate and honour the countless women who are making significant waves and driving positive change worldwide. Happy International Women’s Day to all the inspiring women who are shaping a brighter future for generations to come. May we know them, May we be them🥂 #InvestinWomen #internationalwomensday2024 #InternationalWomensDay #AccelerateProgress #inclusivitymatters

The role of women in the oil industry is increasingly relevant and vital to the success of the sector. Despite historical challenges and cultural barriers, more and more women are demonstrating their ability to lead and contribute in technical, operational and management areas. Mutual support among women in the industry is crucial to continue to open doors and promote a more inclusive work environment. By supporting each other, we not only strengthen our position in the sector, but also drive innovation and progress throughout the industry. Together, we can redefine what it means to be a woman in oil, proving that there are no limits to what we can achieve.

Celebrating International Women's Day: Invest in Women: Accelerating Progress Today, as we commemorate International Women's Day, I find myself reflecting on the courage, resilience, and soft strength that define women around the world. It's a day to honor the trailblazers who dared to challenge the status quo, while never losing sight of their innate nurturing spirit. In our journey, we've been wired to prioritize the needs of others above our own happiness. But today, I choose to embrace both my nurturing nature and my strength, recognizing that my happiness matters just as much as anyone else's. Standing firm in our convictions may sometimes mean sacrificing personal gains, but it paves the way for future generations of women to thrive. I raise my glass to those who came before us, the fearless women who spoke up and stood their ground, shaping a world where equity is not just a dream but a reality. Moreover, let's celebrate the allies—men who understand that investing in and supporting women benefits society as a whole. It's a testament to their understanding that progress knows no gender. As we navigate through the complexities of today's world, let's not forget the importance of love, kindness, and empathy—qualities that women inherently possess. Empowering women, investing in their potential, is not just a moral imperative; it's a strategic move towards alleviating the challenges we face globally. So, here's to the women who continue to break barriers, to the men who champion our cause, and to a future where equity reigns supreme. Happy International Women's Day! 🌸💪 #InternationalWomensDay #InvestInWomen #Empowerment #Equity #IWD2024

“Women continue to be outnumbered by men in leadership positions across all industries, especially in Manufacturing (24.6%), Supply Chain & Transportation (23.0%), Oil & Gas (18.6%), and Infrastructure (16.1%). The reasons have less to do with merit & skill-set, more to do with systemic bias” – World Economic Forum, 2023 We can ‘look the other way’ and deny the existence of role-based or industry-specific Entry Barriers for Women. Or, We can recognize the limitless potential that women bring to the table, and #include them in every role or every industry, without bias – to reap the benefits of ‘diversity-fueled Innovation’. The choice is ours.

𝗦𝗣𝗘 𝗗𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗜𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗲|🌟Harnessing Diversity for a Brighter Future: Celebrating International Women's Day with the International Society of Petroleum Engineers🌟 On International Women's Day, let's discuss Diversity and Inclusion in the Petroleum industry, where inclusion drives innovation and sustainability. Celebrating women's achievements, it's crucial to reflect on the journey toward gender equality in oil and gas. 🌍Facts and Figures: Globally, women constitute 22% of the oil and gas industry workforce. However, gender diversity diminishes at higher levels, with only 17% in senior and executive roles, and a mere 1% reaching the CEO position (Catalyst, 2020). 💼Business Benefits of Diversity: Diversity is not just about equality but is a strategic move for financial success. Companies with women leaders can see a bottom-line boost of up to 6% (Peterson Institute for International Economics). 🚀Striving for Inclusivity: Progress is underway, but achieving genuine diversity in the oil and gas industry requires companies to foster environments that attract, retain, and fully promote female talent. 🌟Embracing a Future of Inclusion and Empowerment: Organizations are crucial in achieving gender parity. The theme for International Women's Day 2024, "Inspire Inclusion," aims to break barriers for a thriving industry where diversity flourishes. Let's forge an inclusive world, shaping a landscape where diversity thrives International Women's Day 2024 (internationalwomensday.com) 🔗 [Watch the Panel Discussion at SPE Energy Stream] https://lnkd.in/eJu2Nq4Q Engage with a "Push Like, Comment, Repost" to unite for idea exchange, inspire change, and break the glass ceiling for equity and inclusion in the oil and gas sector. Happy International Women's Day to all the trailblazers reshaping the landscape of the O&G industry! 🌿💫 #WeAreSPE #SPED&I #DiversityAndInclusion #InternationalWomensDay2024 #SPEEnergyStream
