In celebration of International Women’s Day, RBC is partnering with the Women’s Development Forum (WDF) to host guest speaker Rachel Short on Wednesday.
Ms Short is an occupational psychologist, writer, executive coach and member of the 30% Club Steering Committee. She was a lead researcher on the ‘Cracking the Code’ report which demystified some assumptions about what women really want from their careers and subsequently ‘View from the Top’ exploring CEO impact on gender diversity.
This year’s International Women’s Day theme is ‘Step It Up for Gender Parity’ and Ms Short’s extensive experience will inform her discussion on gender equality in the workplace, celebrate women’s achievements in breaking the glass ceiling and recognize the role men have to play as key stakeholders in this area.
"Rachel has a deep understanding of what motivates women and how we can get fulfillment from our careers," said Tracey Walker, co-chair of RBC’s gender equality Employee Resource Group, RWomen.
"RBC is proud to support this event, as part of its commitment to diversity, personal growth and development."
"We’re thrilled to have Rachel join us in both Guernsey and Jersey," said Michelle Johansen, founder of WDF.
"As we mark International Women’s Day, Rachel’s discussion is as relevant as ever while we continue to strive towards gender parity."
