Women In Business

WOMEN IN THE WORKPLACE 2020 Source: McKinsey & Company  Women in particular have been negatively impacted. Women—especially women of color—are more likely to have been laid o or furloughed during the COVID19 crisis, stalling their careers and jeopardizing their Financial security. The pandemic has intensied challenges that women already faced. Working mothers have always worked a “double shift”—a full day of work, followed by hours spent caring for children and doing household labor. Now the supports that made this possible—including school and childcare—have been upended. Meanwhile, Black women already faced more barriers to advancement than most other employees. Today they’re also coping with the disproportionate impact of COVID19 on the Black community . And the emotional toll of repeated instances of racial violence falls heavily on their shoulders. ___________________________ Listen to Stephen Fahey Managing Director of e-Learning Design Ltd & Founder of the Learning For You Brand Who is championing a new version of BNI: Business International Network for Women.   --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/stephen-fahey/message
