Gabriela Alcántara-Díaz, Founder and President at Semilla AD, explains “female leaders change the way global solutions are forged” therefore, boosting and defending women’s rights will render higher profits even in the stock portfolio.
“Boards with female representation can bring more balance and inclusion, asserted the Credit Suisse Research Institute” she mentioned.
The industry must bet on working with associations, female leadership programs, as well as increasing access to paid internships and mentoring initiatives to increase talent through account management, planning and creative disciplines.
“Our goal should focus on women’s right to affordable healthcare, equal pay and on closing the overall gender gap knowing that women make up 50% of the U.S. population” she expressed.
The executive feels that actions such as the Rose March, that took place in January contributed to giving a voice to the less fortunate. “My hope is to encourage women to own their failures, success but more important to have a voice.”
