Simple steps we can undertake immediately to enable a more empowered future for
our women:

• Equitable upbringing for boys and girls, not discriminated by gender

• Breaking limiting stereotypes for women
• Supporting, nurturing and encouraging female role models to inspire a new
generation of women to take up in a non-traditional field
• Eliminating unconscious-bias in the workplaces, by recognizing it and consciously
learning how to overcome it
• Encouraging empathy by active questioning such as trying to understand the other
person’s point of view, listening carefully, to respond encouragingly and being
flexible.
• Inviting women to actively contribute and bring their unique perspective to
workplace
