It is necessary for women to shed ambivalence in their aspirations, have clear growth plans, build teams around themselves in both personal and professional lives to reduce burnout, and learn positive self-promotion. These views were expressed by participants of a panel discussion on ‘Women in Leadership: Challenges and Solutions’ held at BirthRight by Rainbow Hospitals here on Monday.
Joint managing director of Bharat Biotech, Suchitra Ella and senior consultant-neonatologist and paediatrician at the host hospital A. Venkatalakshmi were among those who participated in the discussion.
They said gender equality is a societal issue and to truly make a difference, solutions have to be found jointly by men and women.
