"Old-fashioned communication" is all that's needed to attract female talent

Women want to progress in their careers as much as businesses need to find a solution to the problem that is retaining key female talent. And according to Anna Rasmussen, founder of Open Blend Method, “the key to this solution is businesses acknowledging that productivity at work is impacted by life, and life is impacted by work”.

Only 24 women needed on FTSE 100 boards to reach 25% target

Voice of RB First Women: It's much easier to just be yourself

My all-time favourite quote is Oscar Wilde's famous: "you may as well, be yourself as everyone else has been taken.”

НЕ БОЙТЕСЬ ЗНАТЬ. СПЕШИТЕ ДЕЙСТВОВАТЬ

Каждая женщина должна заботиться о своем здоровье на протяжении всей жизни — в раннем подростковом возрасте, когда наступает первая менструация, во время беременности, когда она готовится стать молодой мамой, в старшем возрасте, когда она входит в период менопаузы и возрастных изменений в организме.

В 2014 году компания Abbott начала реализацию программы Women First / «НЕ БОЙТЕСЬ ЗНАТЬ. СПЕШИТЕ ДЕЙСТВОВАТЬ» с целью информирования женщин различных возрастов о правилах заботы о собственном здоровье. Программа предусматривает организацию образовательных семинаров для женщин, проведение медицинских симпозиумов и лекций для врачей, бесплатное тестирование на уровень гормонов в ряде городов России, информационную кампанию.

Смысл этих инициатив и ежедневной работы компании Abbott, мирового эксперта в области женского здоровья, — научить женщин правильно заботиться о себе, обращаться к специалисту как для профессиональной медицинской консультации, так и с целью профилактических осмотров, соблюдать рекомендации врача, чтобы оставаться здоровой и активной в любом возрасте. Ведь от того, насколько здоровы и благополучны женщины, зависит здоровье общества в целом.
