Carrie Beckstrom’s Post

While women and girls aspire to break barriers and achieve their dreams, there persists a substantial gap between our aspirations and actual achievements. Tomorrow I'll be on the Keynote stage at the Women in Business & Tech Expo. In this keynote, I will delve deep into the multifaceted challenges and barriers that hinder women from turning their dreams into reality. I will shed light on the social, cultural, and systemic factors that have perpetuated this aspiration-achievement gap. Ultimately, this keynote aims to inspire and empower everyone to recognize, address, and actively work to eliminate the barriers that have long impeded women’s progress. By understanding the root causes and challenges, we can collectively strive for a more inclusive, equitable, and empowered future where women’s aspirations are not just dreams but tangible realities.
