An accomplishment that you consider to be the most significant in your career? What challenges did you face to reach to the success.

Challenges : Being the  first female to venture on an entrepreneurial journey in my family after spending more than a decade working in stable jobs , was not an easy move. One  challenge I encountered was the fact that I didn’t really have a  background in the recruitment industry nor did I know the business dynamics  but I still chose this path as I wanted to make a difference in the society.

Some of the others :

  • Low Acceptance of women entrepreneurs 
  • female entrepreneurs are judged to be less competent than their male peers.
  • Perceived bias within the venture finance community is a concern.
  • Society believes women possess low entrepreneurial skills:
  • I have been judged & criticized for my choices eg : I was told that married women ( with kids) shouldn’t  really be trying to experiment with entrepreneurship. They would advice me   to focus on helping my husband fulfil his entrepreneurial dreams so that my kids can fulfil theirs 
  • Women have an additional responsibility for house and kids and young kids need a lot of attention in their formative years
  • Juggling career with family is like a tightrope walk 

What is a role of leader in these challenging times. List 5 in order of priority.

  1. Visionary : Leaders must have a picture of where they are heading and why that destination matters to the organization, their team and themselves.
  2. Mentor :. Leader has the responsibility and need to develop others to succeed in their roles and prepare for future roles.
  3. Change agent. With strategy and vision comes the ever-present need for change. A leader,  must guide and champion the changes that he/she envisions and the ones that have been entrusted to him/ her .
  4. Team player. You can’t always take the lead. You need to be a teammate, too, and that means understanding when to step out of  leadership role and let others take the lead.
  5. Empathetic Listener. Leaders often think they need to be doing all the talking, but that is a mistake. In fact, the best leaders talk less, and ask, listen, and observe more.
