What makes this episode magical🌟?
This episode is about finance with a heart. It’s about learning how we can challenge gender norms to create an inclusive finance ecosystem.
Here’s what Alice taught me during the episode:
🎯 Making an impact goes beyond ticking off sustainable development goals. It’s about mindset, business models, and values, regardless of gender.
🌈 A balance between masculine and feminine values is not about men versus women. It is about embracing our own biases.
🤝 Diversity in teams and organizations helps to bring balance between feminine and masculine values, as every person has feminine and masculine values.
