Breaking The Bias – International Women’s Month

Howdy, how are you and how have you been holding up? Myself I am great. Today I am excited because the message I have for you is a little bit different from the usual. It is not only celebrating certain people but also, encouraging our women to Break The Bias and our men to give them the necessary support they need to stay winning. International Women’s Month.

International Women's Month offers an opportunity to reflect on progress made, to call for change and to celebrate acts of courage and determination by ordinary women who have played an extraordinary role in the history of their homes, organizations, countries and communities.

This year’s theme is #BreakTheBias!! And it focuses on gender equality today for a better tomorrow. This helps start bold conversations and actions to help forge positive change for women and men!

In line with I&M Bank’s Brand Promise - We are on your side! We understand the importance of having a healthy and capable workforce where everyone is celebrated and valued regardless of their gender. In the spirit of togetherness and in an effort to celebrate women this year, while educating ourselves on gender equality to #BreakTheBias, we would like to focus on equality in the work place. Here are some of our staff’s thoughts and on gender equality for a better tomorrow and how we can #breakthebias to ensure women continue to thrive.
