Breaking Barriers and Empowering Women in the Workplace with Shelley Zalis
Learn actionable strategies for pursuing your passions outside your comfort zone, prioritizing self-care and quality relationships. Discover tools and resources for empowering women globally through the Equality Lounge and Female Quotient initiatives. Tune in for an uplifting conversation on following your heart, challenging norms, and visualizing what's possible when we come together to support each other.
I chatted with Shelley Zalis, an internationally renowned thought leader for advancing equality in the workplace and the CEO of The Female Quotient, champion of equality and all-around chief troublemaker. We discussed how Shelley is advancing gender equality across a variety of industries and career levels!
She shared her journey of overcoming challenges in male-dominated industries through resilience, empathy, and bringing their authentic selves to the table.
She received the @globalmindedorg 2020 Inclusive Leader Award for Entrepreneurship. We discuss advancing equality for women around the world. At the current rate of progress, the World Economic Forum projects it will take 257 years to close the global gender gap — and that gap is only widening due to the effects of the pandemic. We have to take proactive, bold action if we are going to accelerate change. Collaboration is key; Shelley always says that a person alone has power, but together, we have an impact. The purpose driving the Female Quotient is in advancing equality in the workplace through the power of collaboration and, bringing visibility to women & activating change.
