When you hear the word ‘leader’ do you immediately think of a tough, assertive man?
And do you think there is a need to add ‘female’ before the word ‘leader’ when describing a woman in a powerful leadership role?
These are conditional traits that need to change, and in this episode of Take aPause, Varun and Anita dive deep into the challenges women face in their professional lives. In this enlightening conversation, they discuss how the term ‘multitasker’ – commonly associated with women – sets the unfair expectation that they need to juggle their personal and professional lives effectively.
Anita Bhogle, author of Equal, Yet Different is Speaker, Director and IIM Alumni. Her book talks about women in the professional world and the catalysts responsible for them not finding leadership opportunities. Co-authored with Harsha Bhogle, her first book The Winning Way shows how learnings from the field of sport are universally relevant and can be applied to improve our approach to life.
