How Far We’ve come and How Much More to Go: Decoding Changes, Challenges, and the Road Ahead for a Woman Returnee
From dealing with unconscious bias at home and in the corporate world, to taking the first step into the unknown, the challenges are aplenty. A career break has for the longest time been seen as a gap that will hinder her growth trajectory. Corporate returnship programs, flexible policies are now part of a company’s D&I policy.
Why not reimagine a world where her return-to-work is smooth and second nature to any company to ensure that this latent talent pool is tapped into without bias or prejudice against her career status.
Why not reimagine a world where her reason for career break isn’t a determining factor for a successful second career.
Why not reimagine her bringing her skills and experience as a professional combined with the life experience that she has gained over the years of her break.
Bhavya DR Vishwanath, Counselling Psychologist, Soft Skills Facilitator, Freelancer

What does it Take to Close the Gender Gap in Tech: Common Barriers and Solutions
Yes, there are very few women in tech. We know it. We acknowledge it. According to a recent Skillsoft Analysis, 1% of women hold positions in high-growth fields like Cybersecurity. What can corporate India do to ensure that women are encouraged to pursue higher roles in technology?It is time we create an action-driven community determined to close the gender gap in technology by providing additional training, mentoring and coaching.
It is time to reimagine a world of technologists; a world where we won't have to use the term woman technologist.

The Future is Now For Women in Leadership, Yet We’re So Far Away From our Goal - Why?
There is no force more powerful than a woman determined to rise. We love to quote and unquote. It’s time to take a giant leap and make it work. For women. For the world. According to Deloitte Global’s Women in the boardroom report, India sees more women in leadership roles but boardroom diversity is progressing at a snail’s pace. A discussion that throws light on the challenges and solutions to ensure consistent growth and development of women to rise to leadership roles.
