The representation of women in STEM-related opportunities is increasing year on year
Anupama Kadambi, Chief Experience Officer - GOFRUGAL
“At Gofrugal, we believe in giving people freedom and empowering them to learn, innovate and execute their ideas. We provide equal opportunities in hiring from different backgrounds, with a great emphasis on attitude, listening skills, and self-learning capability. We encourage them to learn every day, own/drive a learning plan for their growth. Because of this continuous upskilling, we have 15-20% of women as coaches/managers. 30% of them are less than 25 years old. We aspire to increase this because diversity inclusion is not about age or experience, but skill defines growth.
While the representation of women in STEM-related opportunities is less, it is increasing year on year. Today there is a lot more encouragement and opportunities for women to enter science/tech/engineering/math fields. Women are more vulnerable when they enter the mid-30s or late 40s when they take a career break for the family. Women struggle to get back as they lose their confidence slowly, not aware of how and what to skill up. At Gofrugal, we encourage such women who have had a career break, with a strong desire to restart, willing to learn, and can start work part-time with a minimum of five hours a day.”
