Why is breaking bias and valuing differences so important in 2022?
Biases and stereotypes are unfortunately laden in society and impose added challenges and barriers to women as they work to achieve their goals, move ahead, and make change. Given that every woman has unique perspectives, untapped strengths, and valuable contributions, valuing these differences will foster a community of strong women with infinite potential. Challenging biases and celebrating diversity will forge an inclusive world that provides opportunity for women to do what they do best. After years of isolation and division, prioritizing inclusion is key to rebuilding communities, being innovative in response to challenges, and inspiring growth and change.
