I'm passionate about
Achieving economic prosperity through shared leadership and the full engagement of women in the global economy
An idea worth spreading
We cannot have sustained global economic prosperity without equal shared leadership between men and women and without gender parity. We won't achieve gender parity unless we envision what a gender equal world looks like and we actively engage men at all levels in the advancement of women.
Areas of expertise
Active Engagement of Men to achieve Gender Parity, Business Women in Emerging Economies, Consulting, Executive Coaching
