iBreak- In conversation with Dr, Ankita Singh

In our first episode, Sarah tabet spoke about how vulnerability and courage go hand in hand. We have an inspirational story today of a woman, who realised early on that what society expected of her, and what she wanted from her life were very different. While it left her vulnerable it did not make her any less brave, as she focussed on what she wanted and pursued her dreams with full conviction.
So Today we have with us Dr. Ankita Singh, who is a role model to many of us today.

DR Ankita Singh, Senior Vice President and Global Head of HR at CIGNEX and Founder: HR Association of India.

Women can have it all, it’s just we have to define our ‘all’ instead of letting others define our all. Everything becomes clear once we define our all and work towards achieving it. Ankita’s story is testimonial to that where she defined her all, and went after it without guilt. Did she face challenges- yes, but she never wavered from her goals. And today here she is …. Living the life of her dreams… and we are all entitled to live a life that we dream of.

Do join us today to hear her journey in full!

iBreak- In conversation with Divisha Choudhary

Entrepreneurship, Leadership, parenthood have no gender and yet terms like ‘women entrepreneurs’, ‘women leaders’, ‘working mothers’ seem to stick and perpetuate bias. Well, this year’s International women’s day theme is #Breakthebias and through these candid conversations we are trying to do just that, bring forth some of the lived realities, questions these #stereotypes and biases and in the process break them.

In Shark Tank India, 43% of the business that were pitched had women as founders or co-founders.

In this vonversation, we have with us Divisha Choudhary, the co-founder of Bevzilla. She is 23 years old, and runs her own business.

iBreak- In conversation with Minal Srivastava!

A question that begs an answer is, where are all those women, who were recruited between 2001 and 2010, should they not have been at leadership levels today? Why were we not able to retain them, nurture them, grow them?

The answer lies somewhere between the approach taken by the organisations and the deep rooted biases and stereotypes that still exist, and need to be broken. And to do that, we will have a candid conversation with Minal Srivastava, who will take us through her journey of navigating through personal and professional life, breaking barriers and emerging as a leader on her own terms.

An alumnus of MICA, Minal Srivastava comes with more than 19 years of robust work experience.
