A blueprint for women's growth
As we embark on a new year, I have been reflecting on "resolutions", and, more specifically, what it takes for an individual or a society to be resolute in a world of endless challenges and obstacles. Throughout my career, I have seen many examples of people triumphing against the odds -- extraordinary accomplishments that often begin with a small group of individuals seeking to solve a problem. In the best cases, local communities, government and the private sector align and invest in programmes and policies that create more opportunities for these groups to flourish.
