2. Across the advertising landscape, I want to see more female representation in…
Technical and design area. Although women are flourishing within the advertising industry, it will make me absolutely proud to see more women expressing their creativity and ingenuity.
3. One stereotype about women that should be busted this year is…
That women are emotional. We, in fact, are emotionally intelligent.

4. My organization is promoting gender equality and women empowerment…
By not discriminating between genders when it comes to merit and aptitude.
5. I believe women can fight gender inequality at their workplaces…
By bridging the gender gap and taking up more and more technical jobs.
6. As for men, they can help reduce gender bias at home and work…
By simply acknowledging the fact that women too are capable of making professional conversations and sharing advice despite being homemakers. They can be more receptive towards an ‘alternate’ point of view and accept that women at home, can give a fresh perspective to their work issues or problems.

Be yourself, be respectful!
