At the #FTWomen in Business Summit Europe.
Lots of great insights and practical steps out of the panel discussion on "How to tackle the gender pay gap".
Transparency + commitment + proactivity + accountability are key to close the pay gap.
Companies are failing in their #DEI efforts by not linking it to their business strategy or implementing authentic programs. DE&I is not just a reaction to employee dissatisfaction but also improves decision-making, innovation, and resilience.

Dove's campaign is rooted in its long-standing "Real Beauty" platform aimed at boosting the self-confidence of women and young girls. To put action behind the words, Dove is collaborating with @CommonSense & @ptogetheraction to support the 2023 Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA).
Blown away by @Dove's campaign highlighting social media's adverse effects on young people's self-image. The film depicts a girl's battle with an eating disorder and emphasizes the need to boost women and girls' self-esteem.

The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon.
The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow.
People say crypto will bank the unbanked. That it will bridge the divide.
That ain't so easy amigos.
I used to work in micro-finance
Micro-whatie ?
Micro-FINANCE = ~ $100 loans to unbanked women (usually) who have no collateral
What is the No 1 reason they borrow?

While Google says it will now be paying & hiring all employees fairly & equally after they have to pay $118 million to settle a gender discrimination lawsuit, it's yet a crying shame lawsuits seem to be the only way forward to close the gender pay gap.

Social audio, probably not. But #Clubhouse quickly lost the essence of a club.
And the main reason people are interested in talking to large groups of strangers is to sell something, so it just became an audio sale platform, not a social one.

The race is again about who is going to get there first, while it should be about mastering it, especially moderation, and making it a safe place for everyone.
It’s like lessons are never learnt or wait…
