Creating the feminine community

Changing the gender script requires collaboration and communication.

09 October 2018

There have been plenty of conversations around the glass ceiling, the female unicorn, the wage and gender gap, the complexities of the feminine within the masculine workplace and the hurdles that all stilettos have to climb in order to succeed. At the BCX and ITWeb Women in Tech event 2018, the conversation changed. It focused on how these challenges need to be overcome by changing the way the script is written.

“There has to be more female leadership focused on developing women and ensuring a succession plan for every woman, regardless of company or role,” said Mummy Mthembu Fawkes, MC at the event and successful LeaderPreneur and founder of the Earthy SA Natural Hair Care product range. “If it wasn’t for my coaches, mentors or sponsors, I would not be where I am today.”
