Today, on International Women's Day, I want to celebrate the incredible women who are making waves in the supply chain and procurement industry. From strategic sourcing to risk management, women are bringing their expertise, innovation, and strong leadership to every corner of the field. Over the years as a procurement and supply chain recruiter, I have been privileged to meet and work with some incredible women. Women who have pushed boundaries and broken down barriers to help women rise to influential leadership roles in what was traditionally a male dominated industry. Figures from GWPP (Global women Procurement Professionals) suggest that women now make up 38% of the roles, with 25% in leadership. The impact of diversity helps give a fresh perspective and can have a positive impact on innovation within organisations. Diverse teams bring together a wider range of experiences and backgrounds. This can lead to creative solutions to problems and innovative approaches to sourcing, logistics, and risk management. Here's a few examples: ☑ Identifying Untapped Markets: Diverse suppliers, especially those from underrepresented groups, may have access to new markets or resources that traditional suppliers wouldn't. This can open doors for innovative product development or sourcing strategies. ☑ Challenging the Status Quo: Diverse teams are more likely to challenge existing practices and assumptions. This can lead to a more questioning and adaptable approach to procurement, allowing companies to react faster to changing market conditions. ☑ Embracing Disruption: Diverse teams are often better equipped to handle disruption because they are used to considering different perspectives. This can be crucial in today's rapidly changing global landscape. ☑ Enhanced Problem Solving: Diverse teams bring a wider range of problem-solving skills to the table, leading to more creative and effective solutions for complex procurement and supply chain challenges. Let's #EmbraceEquity and continue to empower women in supply chain! #IWD2024 #SupplyChain #Procurement #WomenInBusiness #Leadership #DiversityInclusion

#MentorThoughts #Women #Procurement #Professionals #Leaders 📍 We need to reshape our own perception of how we view ourselves. We play multiple roles, our challenges are many fold, yet let those not be our excuses, rather, we have to step up as women and take the lead" - Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter 📍 I have been fortunate I guess having been with, mentored, led, managed and worked along extensively with women from different nationalities, diverse backgrounds, contrasting thoughts, habits, mindset, skills, competencies and culture - in #procurement and #Supplychain - across the networks, organizations and beyond ! Be it she as a an Assistant, an Administrator, an Officer, Colleague, Manager, Head, Student or a Practitioner, Customer or a Stakeholder ! Let me just forget the ones who wanted to use the she advantages for work preferences, we have it all around the ground, let me ignore the ones who did not find alignment for being encouraged into a world of strategic insights - Yes, I want to carry the memories from 30 years back, the ones that showed strong mindsets, consistently hungry to learn and chase perfection that women are always known for, that is their great strength. 📍 You are one too, if you do not realize 📍 I want to carry the memories from 20 years back, the passionate ones consistently prepared to unlearn and learn, to sit, stand and work in their innovative patents, reflect strongest resilience, demonstrated to me their “It is just my business boss” results-driven attitudes and dedication to go beyond to elevate their niche competencies. 📍 You are one too, if you do not realize 📍 I want to carry the memories from the last and current decade from them who stood up to believe that the best way to overcome situations, challenges and fear is simply to acknowledge that these exist but still do the things that scared them to nerves anyway, after all their aggressiveness to risk-taking and their combination of empathy and high energy reflect their natural non-stop leadership inside them. 📍 You are one too, if you do not realize 📍 Feel valued, settle into roles quicker, remain motivated, and certainly not shy when it comes to taking that seat at the end of the table or to be at the helm. Going by the instincts, love self first and always, trust self and first, being as simple as the woman she is as elevated as the intelligence inside the head. 📍 You are one too, if you do not realize 📍 📍 Wherever you come from, your success will be determined by your own confidence and fortitude - There is no limit to what we, as women, can accomplish - Michelle Obama 📍 To each and every woman colleague, friend, leader, mentee and mentor out there, take a bow, you can be the best, just be inspired and continue to inspire - 📍 You are the one, if you do not realize 📍 #womenleaders #inclusionanddiversity #professionalism #leadership

I recently attended the Women in Governance Conference organized by GCC Board Directors Institute (GCC BDI), and it has been an enlightening and empowering experience. The conference featured a series of insightful sessions aimed at equipping women with the knowledge and tools to thrive in boardrooms. Throughout the conference, from the opening session to the panel discussions, each moment was filled with valuable information and inspiration. The session "Navigating the Road to Boardrooms" held on 26th July 2023 was particularly exceptional. Khlood A. Aldukheil, CFA's presentation was enlightening, shedding light on the importance of women's roles in the financial industry. The panel discussion moderated by Francesca Gori was equally insightful, featuring esteemed personalities who shared their experiences and wisdom on achieving success in the boardroom. Maryam Ficociello, Ebtesam Alteneiji, PhD, Abdullatif Al-Othman , Minna Israel, Rowena Elliot provided invaluable advice, emphasizing the significance of confidence, networking, continuous learning, and breaking barriers. 📝 Key Takeaways: Confidence is Key: Women should believe in their abilities and competencies, not shying away from leadership roles or boardroom opportunities. Networking Matters: Building a strong network and mentoring relationships can open doors to board positions and career advancements. Lifelong Learning: Continuous self-improvement and staying updated with industry trends are vital for women aiming for boardroom success. Breaking Barriers: Breaking through gender biases and stereotypes is essential for creating diverse and inclusive boardrooms that lead to better decision-making. Thanks to GCC Board Directors Institute (GCC BDI) for arranging such an enriching conference and for the commitment to empowering women in the corporate world! #boardroomadvisors #leadershipdevelopment #diversityandinclusion
