While it has been over 100 years since the world first celebrated the first International Women’s Day in 1911, there is still much more that can be done to #EmbraceEquity for women in society.
Women continue to face restrictive gender role expectations and biases every day in the workplace and in society, at large.
Research shows that 90% of both, men and women, hold some sort of bias against women.
This can include women being labeled as temperamental and bossy, to women being good fits for caregiving professions, to being unfit for leadership positions.
Women from all walks of life continue to contend with external and internalized challenges to fulfilling their potential.
