In conversation with Ira Singhal, Joint Director, Department of Social Welfare, on the issue of Domestic abuse, women safety and why do women hesitate to speak up?

Our third interview is with Pooja Jauhari, the CEO of The Glitch, on the topic of ‘Women and Leadership’. Despite Progress, Women Are Scarce Among Senior Leaders. Research shows very few women are CEOs of the world’s largest corporations. Only 33 women (6.6%) were CEOs of Fortune 500 companies. Only around 6% companies on the Fortune India 500 list are managed by women. Women account for less than a third (29%) of senior roles globally. In this conversation, we will try and unpeel some of the hurdles and obstacles in the journey towards Leadership.

Together, we can make a difference! Keeping in view the present-day employment scenario, the inclusion of LGBTQAI in the corporate space is as critical a topic that needs our focus and attention during the current times as we work towards business continuity, business recovery, employee experience and wellbeing. Considering the journey so far, the struggles of the community and the steps we can take going forward need to be focused keeping in mind the context and the challenges that need to be addressed. We would like to thank our panelist Surender (Suren) Mehta, Mayank Lodha (he/him), Richa Singh and Ritambhara Mehta for sharing their on-ground efforts, experiences and insights over the years working towards inclusion of the LGBTQIA community in the workforce. We would also like to thank our attendees for bringing up relevant questions to help understand how we can address some of the challenges and barriers towards the journey of inclusion of the community in the evolving demands of the workforce.
