 How To Foster a More Inclusive Corporate Ecosystem

In today's evolving business landscape, the pursuit of gender equality has emerged as a crucial agenda. It is not only for the progression of society but as an essential of corporate responsibility especially in Malaysia, where diverse cultures intersect with dynamic economic aspirations, playing a pivotal role in shaping a more inclusive corporate ecosystem.

In this episode of Resource Centre, our discussion with Emellia Shariff, Managing Partner of Speak Up Malaysia, and Alia Abdullah, Member of Lean In Malaysia and alumni of its Women Entrepreneur Bootcamp, promises to delve deep into the role of businesses in championing gender equality. We will draw from their extensive experiences and personal insights to explore the current challenges businesses face in the endeavor of pursuing gender equality, the effective strategies for fostering an inclusive work environment, and the broader implications of gender equality for economic growth.
