As a woman in the business world, I’m not always thrilled about being celebrated for successes because I happen to be a specific gender. (I’m particularly thinking about things like special awards categories such as “Top Women in XX Industry”).
That said, there is something unique about the role International Women’s Day plays in supporting a more inclusive world – which is something I absolutely can get behind. This year’s theme is
#choosetochallenge and in the words of the organization that supports this initiative:
“A challenged world is an alert world and from challenge comes change.”
