“The digital age will favor women”
I studied Industrial Engineering, to be able to work in various Industries. Over time I allowed myself to start and manage my own company. Historically, the beloved “hard sciences” were considered male careers, and I had to overcome situations associated with stereotypes and low participation of women in class. Fortunately, these situations are being overcome little by little.
Besides. Policies that promote the reconciliation of work and parenting contribute to the participation of women at all levels of decision-making and management, and seem to be giving good results around the world.
I believe women can gain great benefits from the digital age. The digitalization of the world of work offers new professional opportunities. The digital era allows freedom, mobility and flexibility, factors that, when used well, represent a great qualitative leap.
The proportion of women in management positions in the private sector remains much lower than that of men. Although women today are just as likely to graduate from college and are as qualified as men, they are not often found in senior management positions.
DINKA was born from a desire to work differently, but also to contribute to more people enjoying their jobs, projects and companies.
