As women climb up the corporate ladder, they vanish in today's large organization. Even
the statistics vary slightly. This is an extremely consistent pattern followed all
around the world.
More than half of the employees in organizations are female at the lowest levels. As you
move to each successively higher level in the organization, the number of women steadily
shrinks. At the CEO level, worldwide, there are only 3% to 4% who are women. 50% of the
global population are women and just one-fourth of the world politicians are women. The
ratio gets lesser when it comes to women at the head of government positions which is
only 7%
To empower women with an equal job, salary and leadership opportunities we are
strengthening their leadership skills with the medium of our conferences on Women
Leadership. The idea of doing something to give back to the society, women community and
help women was always there as a passion in my heart. Ensuring education, equal rights,
safety, good health, sanitation, awareness of threats women and young girls come across
is the key areas of challenges for women across the globe. Challenges of even getting
equally paid like men have been such a wish.
Irrespective of these ground level challenges, there have always been strong women to
come up and lead in the male dominant sector. Be it the field of science, arts,
mathematics, space studies, social work or what so ever… women have proved themselves
without boundaries.
The idea of doing conferences which are women centric and focusing on Women Leadership
in the Indian industry was a great start of contribution towards society. It was early
August in the year 2017 when Future Woman Leader Summit and Awards was born after a
2-hour long discussion with the managing director of Transformance Forums, identifying
our real interests.
In the conference industry where 80% of the workforce is dominated by women, it is quite
obvious that there is a real need to promote women to the Leadership positions now.
During our extensive research, we spoke to several women from various industries,
working with top organizations heading their departments, most of them had stated a
concern that they would like to know how women can have a work-life balance and all that
the world is talking about. It is true that we are not stuck with old thoughts and
attitude. This is New India and in this New India, women are leaders who take stand for
themselves.
As they say it right, you educate a man in the family, there is one educated human. But,
if you educate a woman in the family, the entire family gets educated.
In this new India, the need is to empower women because the future of leadership, is
women.
In this summit, women can understand how to face the challenges that on their leadership
journey and what stops them to travel that one extra mile, change mind-sets and
perceptions about women and take necessary steps towards woman leadership and
empowerment.
The speakers at Future Woman Leader Summit focus and address issues women face in their
corporate or the journey of their career. To be successful, one needs to be focused,
dedicated, and devoted to their work. In this race, women face more challenges than what
men do in our society.
Not talking only about being a working woman but considering women reach the top level
management or be at the CXO position, we have observed a gap. Women in majority end up
being at the CXO minus one position and never reach the CXO designations. Understanding
this barrier and need we will discuss the key challenges women face in their leadership
journey and how they can overcome them. The conclusion focuses on breaking the barrier
of reaching that CXO minus One position in women leadership journey.
The first edition of the conference took place on 5th October at The Westin Garden City,
Mumbai with a record making participation of 162 women leaders and Entrepreneurs
participating in the summit. Followed by the second edition on 6th and 16th March 2018
in Delhi and Bengaluru respectively. For the third edition of Future Woman Leader Summit
& Awards, 23rd November, St. Regis, Mumbai, we experienced the aura of trust, respect,
and love from the industry which strengthened ours believes of continuing the great work
and purpose. Each conference resulted in the overall ratings of 2.5 and above stating
the great learning and life to change experience by over 400 women leaders who have
participated in the series.
To celebrate women leadership and women who have broken the Glass ceiling and achieved
their dreams and goals, we encourage the Future Woman Leader Awards. In the award
ceremony, we recognize women leaders across the country in various fields of the
male-dominated industry and a lot of innovation and steps towards a glorious future.
The story of Future Woman Leader Summits and Awards has started with a purpose. It shall
live, it shall grow and it shall change lives as it always does.
We are here to change lives… We are here to change India because Now, is the time for
Women.
