anemptytextllineWhat happens when someone gets angry? It obviously depends greatly on cultures and personalities. However, quite often, it’s not really recommended in the professional sphere.

anemptytextllineWork not only gives dignity to the person carrying it out but also to those on the receiving end and we will always value it.

anemptytextllineWhen a manager (him, for instance) has two positions to attribute to two equally skilled candidates, they tend to give the simplest one to the woman and the more complicated one to the man. He seeks to increase the chances of success of women – after all, there are very few women, we’re not going to risk their failure! -
anemptytextllineEvery morning we wake up to debates about victims, aggressors, rights, false allegations... It is surprising, on the one hand, how many facts and figures are given, which are unrelated to each other and even contradict each other. In social networks such as Twitter, we witness a dance of information and denials, of unmasked hoaxes, of communiqués and declarations. Many of us wonder who to believe, what figures are authentic and how to check the veracity of the data. With posttruth installed in all spheres and ease of manipulation, what studies can we believe? -
anemptytextllineWe all have natural affinities and colleagues we “like” more than others … It’s human, of course, but that does not justify treating people differently in the workplace. So, how do we dissociate the work from the affect? The first thing to do is to sit down and think. Don’t let your emotions take over. And then, ask yourself what the reason of the rejection/oversight/etc. is. -

anemptytextllinewhat do we mean by feminine management and masculine management? I’m against the idea of giving different genres to management. The problem today lies in the fact that society has established a certain leadership style as being the one that all managers should follow. As a result, an ideal of leadership is created, often by supermen, sometimes by superwomen, who manage to build teams, motivate them, understand them, have time to work out 1 hour every morning, do yoga and meditation in the evening, and are obviously very charismatic and always confident. Leaders who never get angry, who coach their teams, reassure them, explain things, who give guidance without micromanaging… I mean, you know… -

anemptytextllineWhile working from home has been seen as beneficial for those otherwise commuting into the cities, it has been detrimental for those dependent on such commuters – office cleaners, receptionists, cab drivers, restaurant and catering staff.

Yes, the global gender gap index is still improving according to the reports of World Economic Forum, but our time poses some new challenges of its own, not to mention the old ghosts of the past still hanging around. -

anemptytextllineIn three weeks time, five storms hit the Philipines, three of them destroyed our infrastructure, displaced people, denuded farms, and more.With all these 21 typhoons visiting the country and disturbing national peace this year, not to mention the number of earthquakes in between, there is COVID-19 in the equation. Our frontliners and rescuers are overworked, underpaid, stressed, and unappreciated. This is a call for CLIMATE JUSTICE. To those in power who are making climate decisions, I hope you do not look at statistics as mere numbers, but as real people with survival stories. -
anemptytextllineThe confinement put us all to the test, since feeling deprived of freedom, not being able to continue with a normal life and having to stay at home. In the months of April and May, the percentage of people suffering from mental problems and serious fatigue increased and it would be interesting to see if the cause is due to telework or simply telework misapplied by necessity. -
anemptytextllineThe home, as we have experienced from months of lockdown due to Covid, is pivotal in our understanding of ourselves and others. All the prejudices of our understanding, especially when it comes to disabilities, are gleaned from the home. And those prejudices are reinforced, for example, by television dramas. But parents, relatives, friends and those who work with people with Down’s syndrome follow a very different storyline. -

anemptytextllineWe are bringing you an interview with Kay Fabella, a DEI Consultant and Remote Team Strategist. Kay is passionate about the gender equality topic and in past years she has worked with multiple companies including the IMF, Philips, Red Hat, and PepsiCo, to improve inclusivity, communication and diversity. As Filipina American, Kay draws from her own lived experiences as a "multihyphenate" woman of color, a daughter of immigrants, and an immigrant herself to build bridges for belonging. She believes that more inclusive workplace cultures start with sharing non-linear stories — to expand worldviews and increase connectivity and collaboration. With her company, Inclusion in Progress, Kay works with companies to create equitable workplaces. Her work has been featured in Forbes, Fast Company, and Thrive Global. -
anemptytextllineProgress in computing and the explosion of data has opened up astonishing prospects for mankind in many fields: the development of science, robotics enabling the exploration of naturally inaccessible areas, improved comfort, intercommunication and medicine. We can be rightly astonished at the extent of the help that technology brings us daily. However, all this technique, which some people call artificial intelligence (or A.I.), if it already provides us with many services, can have perverse effects. -
anemptytextllineIf you’ve applied the tips I gave in the previous article, you should now have several new female recruits! The question now is how to integrate them into the different departments.

anemptytextllineI present in this post the inspiring story of Eiko Hashiba, a Japanese banker who left her position to take care of her baby... and created a financial empire 10 years later. Having to resign from her position at Goldman Sachs made her question why consultants like her could not be outsourced, so as to have the possibility to integrate family and professional life. This was what she had in mind when, 10 years later, she founded VisasQ, of which she is CEO. -
anemptytextllinendustry 4.0 has been a buzzword some time but technological development is happening at such a high speed that Industry 5.0 is almost here. The next wave of the industrial revolution will define how we collaborate and how we define the rules between human and machine interaction. This article aims to challenge your thinking about the way we are going to integrate technologies, how much power and rights we will reserve for them, and how our cohabitation will look like. -
anemptytextllineIt is not the very clear inappropriate comments that do the most harm. These are easy to identify, and are generally unanimously condemned by the team members. In the end, they are quite easy to eliminate if you decide to really tackle the problem, by making the company’s position on the issue clear. -

anemptytextllineMany women in Nigeria suffer ailments resulting from the use of firewood. The World Health Organization states that “Over 98,000 Nigerian women die annually from use of firewood.

anemptytextllineI keep saying how important it is to apply the zero tolerance rule. But why zero tolerance? Why not accept small deviations that do not hurt anyone? -
anemptytextllineToday, I would like to address the problem of speaking up in companies. If at first sight, this problem might seem secondary, this unequal relationship to speech has many consequences. This question is indeed closely linked to that of work recognition. -
anemptytextllineHalf 1 2021 has been a big chapter in the book of life. I am not sure if you have found it harder than 2020, but many in my global networks have felt so. Maybe its because we thought C19 would be in the past and we faced this year with so much hope. I have had to relook at life and here are 15 personal lessons I have learnt and would like to share with you. Its a big act of vulnerability to be writing this. So here we go! -

anemptytextllineIt is not just about addressing every environmental challenges we find but more of those that directly affect the lives of women across communities because there are facts that tell that women are the most affected by environmental challenges. -
anemptytextllineMalkia Foundation is trying its best, but our reserves are almost finished now. Before COVID, we used to serve 4,000 girls every year by making provision for menstrual hygiene management supplies to them. COVID doubled our numbers and without donors, wellwishers, partners and collaborators, not a single girl will be able to access a single sanitary pad for a single month for a long time to come. -
anemptytextllineThe global outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, which began in late 2019, has put humanity and civilization in an unthinkable and challenging scenario. This crisis has harmed hard-won development gains while exacerbating pre-existing and chronic issues, including poverty, hunger, and unemployment. On March 24, 2020, the Government of Nepal (GON) announced a nationwide lockdown, affecting all social and economic activity in the country. -

anemptytextllineOne of the novelties of the reform of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) was that both the teaching and learning processes should be affected by the introduction of the principle of equal opportunities from a gender perspective. -
anemptytextllineThe entry of women into Parliament in 1931 confirmed the ability - and the need - for women to participate in public affairs. Although in numerical terms their presence might seem testimonial (barely 1%), the truth is that their parliamentary activity went much further. And the same happened in 1977, when, taking up the legacy of their predecessors, twenty-seven women, twenty-one in Congress and six in the Senate (barely 5%), took part in the first legislature of democracy. In 1931, of the three, two were jurists. In 1977, of the twenty-seven, five were jurists. -
anemptytextllineThere is no doubt that since the first pioneering women jurists began their work, much progress has been made at the regulatory and associative levels. In Spain today there are several associations of women jurists (AEMJ, Themis, Association of Women Judges of Spain...), in addition, mixed professional groups have equality sections or commissions. Therefore, although there are still pending issues and improvements, we cannot ignore the progress we have made thanks to the efforts -sometimes superhuman- of those who preceded us and to whom we are indebted and who deserve not to be forgotten. -
anemptytextlline"I believe that a new era is beginning in the life of the law. Until now we women have lived on the fringes of the law; we have been nourished by the crumbs of the law, so comprehensive and broad, so humane and progressive for men, but so mean and sad, so decayed and harsh for women; you yourselves recognize this, the noble and loyal companions who have cried out against injustice and lend yourselves to remedy it. I am sure that a new era is beginning. A new day is dawning behind the tangled and dour jungle of Law, a new day when the sun will shine for all". -
anemptytextllineFinally, there is no doubt that there are AI algorithms that reinforce gender biases, but also ones that uncover them. However, AI itself is not one to blame. It is only mirroring issues of our society, and the fundamental work and improvements are still to be done among us, humans. -
anemptytextllineMaría Teresa Russo explains on the book "Hapiness and Domestic Lief" that it aims to provide a mainly conceptual framework for the relationship between the quality of domestic life and the home environment (family relationships, technical tools, housing style, household chores) and individual and social happiness, especially in the context of current changes. -
anemptytextllineIt is life, not a disease. This slogan appears on the posters of a successful and relevant awareness campaign of the Regional Government of Extremadura, which aims to alert the population about the medicalization of situations and states that are not a disease, and that can and should be solved with will, advice and mental and emotional hygiene. Medicalization has led to normal life circumstances and events being identified as pathological and treated with medication. -
anemptytextllineInequality in the relationship to speech is at the root of many other inequalities, which is why it is so important to tackle it. Additionally, companies will benefit from promoting (and prevent from losing) great employees who are not sufficiently recognized. They will also gain more from their contributions. Now that I have come to this conclusion, a question remains: what can be done to solve this problem? -
anemptytextllineAmending or ending “mass education” doesn’t mean we eliminate curriculum. It simply means new generations will enjoy more personalized services tailored to enhance their unique individuality or address their particular needs while still fostering collaboration. Education’s new era should embrace the learners’ individual personalities, capabilities, talents, and strengths. -

anemptytextllineThe fight for women's rights has been a long and arduous journey, marked by significant achievements and setbacks. Women's right to vote, secured by the suffragette movement, was a major milestone in this struggle. However, despite these achievements, gender inequality persists in various forms, ranging from the gender pay gap to limited access to technology. This article sheds light on data and statistical information that reveal the extent to which women's access to technology is still limited. -
anemptytextllineExcellent schools encourage and assist pupils to realise their potential and are designed to equip them for success and fulfilment in the world beyond. Girls’ schools are founded on the principle that these aims are best achieved by educating girls separately. There is strong evidence that girls-only education leads to higher academic achievement, greater diversity of subject choice, stronger self-confidence and resilience, and enhanced career progression. -
anemptytextllineMale failure? In school, boys generally fare worse than girls. "The situation of women in Spain, according to all the statistics from international organisations, is one of the best in the world, although this does not mean that it cannot be improved. At present, there are more women at university than men, school failure is mostly male, as is suicide, and the presence of women is increasingly evident in professions such as medicine, the judiciary, state administration and the highest levels of politics. In addition, our life expectancy is several years longer than that of men". -
anemptytextllineThis writing presents a collaboration to the UNESCO GEM report by the " Iguales y Diferentes " (Equal and Different) educational think tank. The text presents three ways in which female schools promote women's leadership: first, by encouraging risk-taking; second, by enhancing analytical skills to facilitate decision-making; and third, by eliminating gender stereotypes. Therefore, girls become fearless , smart and genuine leaders. -

anemptytextllinePromotion techniques vary from company to company, and even if it’s not intentional, some of them disadvantage women. We have already established that most women will only apply for a position if they are sure they have all the required skills. So, by definition, a company that advertises open positions will see far fewer women applying than a company that identifies and suggests the position to potential candidates directly. -
anemptytextllineToday, we’re taking a look at this essential question: in the workplace, what’s the difference between a man and a woman? Generally speaking, one of the only answers to this question is the possibility for women to have children. Women who have chosen to become mothers will benefit from maternity leave. Following childbirth, they need time off to recover from this physical ordeal. However, at the end of that period, the choice of which parent will take the time to care for the child is purely cultural. Women are not born with a gene that tells them how to take care of a child. They don’t innately know how to feed, educate or care for a baby; they learn “on the job”. -

anemptytextllineThe switching-off might also need to be literal this summer. Some families are taking tech-audits and after working out how much time each family member is spending online and on-screen are agreeing to have a “switch-off summer.” This might be having a week away where there is no wifi, or deciding on a screen curfew after which talking to each other takes the place of fiddling with our phones. -

anemptytextllineThe challenge of being a woman in the 21st century is the challenge of being oneself. To do so, it is necessary to recover and rediscover the essence of femininity. The question of what it means to be a woman today precedes the question of the challenges that such a condition entails. In turn, when a woman asks herself what the essence of being a woman is, she is asking herself about her own identity. -
anemptytextllineThe quest for self-knowledge and understanding has been a central theme in many philosophical traditions over the centuries.

anemptytextllineIn our research we found no age was the right age to be a woman leader. There was always an age-based excuse to not take women seriously, to discount their opinions, or to not hire or promote them. Each individual woman may believe she’s just at the wrong age, but the data make the larger pattern clear. Any age can be stigmatized by supervisors and colleagues to claim that the woman is not valued or is not a fit for a leadership role. -

anemptytextllineYou have not noticed that the words «manager» and «housewife» sound alike? It is not the result of chance, but of a common etymology: the Italian maneggiare, to which we also owe the name «manège» and the verb «manier». And if we go back even further, all these terms are derivatives of the Latin manus: the hand. Yes, manager, it’s literally driving with your hand. This is what the conductor does when he conducts the musicians; what the parent does with the child he is raising; what the person who runs the house does. -
