This year’s International Women’s Day (IWD) theme is Accelerate Action, emphasising the importance of swift and decisive action to achieve gender equality in all walks of life, personal and professional. Given that full gender parity will not be achieved until 2158 (according to the World Economic Forum), most would recognise that the current rate of progress is too slow.

International Women’s Day, I’m reflecting on the transformative journey our team is on and the important role that all of us need to play in driving meaningful change and accelerating progress. Both personally and professionally, I've learned firsthand how both commitment and resilience are critical factors in shaping an inclusive culture—one that fosters remarkable team growth and innovation.

In business, the path to value creation requires more than strategic planning and execution - it demands an ability to connect the dots, anticipate needs, and understand the human elements that drive progress. Women often demonstrate these capabilities through their natural inclination to consider multiple perspectives and implications before making decisions. This approach, which emphasises understanding the complete picture rather than just individual components, can lead to more sustainable and meaningful business outcomes. So how do women move mountains in the corporate and technology landscapes, encouraging innovation and leaving a lasting impact.
