Session: From Self-Care to Squad-Care: Elevating Women’s Wellbeing in the Workplace
This keynote is designed to address the unique and persistent challenges faced by women in the workplace through the lens of wellness and community. Focusing on the power of female connection alongside the five dimensions of workplace wellness (career, financial, community, emotional, and physical), this talk puts a spotlight on the gendered factors holding women back from the C-Suite while simultaneously equipping attendees with ideas, tactics, and strategies to elevate each other at work. Spoiler alert, you can't solve the workplace challenges of child care, menstruation, menopause, inequitable pay, unpromotable tasks, emotional and cognitive labor, microaggressions, mental health, and wealth creation, alone. Together, we'll build your squad to make these overdue equity-based advancements a reality!Key Takeaways
- Describe the five (5) dimensions of workplace wellbeing as defined by Gallup and Workhuman.
- Articulate the challenges for women in the workplace related to the dimensions of wellbeing.
- Identify and communicate solutions to these perennial biased-barriers within your workplace.
