On this International Women's Day, we are celebrating where women work and leaders, allies, talent teams and ourselves to amplify the many talents of women in their workplace. To amplify these stories through career conversations, through advocacy and through greater accessibility to opportunities. (Check our comments below for our March activity offer).

2020's radical workplace challenges impacted everyone but women more dramatically overall. Our research also showed that these challenges made it harder for women in the workplace in many areas but especially in the context of career planning, online visibility and networking.

Visibility matters. Advocacy, allies and networks matter. In our now digital first workplaces, a digital reputation is now how we make our first impression with work, customers and teams. Showcasing credentials, talents and visibility online is vital to ongoing career opportunities, in whatever role and industry.

Throughout March, we will be supporting women (and male allies) with access and discounts to our career advice reports, tools and insights. Because once you know the value in your reputation, to amplify strengths and your network, opportunities abound. (see the comments below for our first action)

As with any work relationship, clarify the expectations (what success looks like as well as what is outside boundaries), actively communicate polices and seek to understand first. Emotions can run high on both sides in performance issues and whilst termination may be the right outcome in some circumstances, getting it wrong for a misunderstanding or missed opportunity to learn from it can impact overall employee morale, brand and the bottom line.

Does your company have a social media policy that covers a variety of situations?
