| Message from CEO - Ladies leading the way at the ASB |
|
|
As we honour Women’s Day on the 9th of August, it is an opportunity to celebrate women and all they bring to the workplace. Many of you may not know, but the ASB is a team of 6, and the team is entirely comprised of women – Amanda, Elizna, Julianne, Nabeela, Shereen and me. I am proud to lead this incredible team of ladies who make an enormous contribution to strengthening democracy in South Africa.
Women fulfil so many roles in society – leaders, employees, mothers, daughters, grannies, aunts, friends. All of these roles mean that ladies have both a diversity of strengths and capabilities, but also many tales of hard work, resilience, and overcoming obstacles that just come with being a woman. It is important to recognise the diversity that women bring to the workplace - their unique approach to problem-solving, diligence, devotion, teamwork, kindness and empathy. It is also my responsibility - along with other women in leadership positions - to empower, develop, and nurture women wherever we can.
This month you will get to know the ladies in the ASB team and what it means for them to be a woman. Join us in celebrating Women’s Month and feel free to post your stories – or stories about the special ladies in your life – on our social media pages. |
