The International Women Board of Directors has launched their Saudi chapter with Women's Leadership Connection Lunch on March 6, 2024. This event took place in Riyadh at The St. Regis. This step shall encourage women towards top leadership roles and will promote good participation of Middle East’s senior women in corporate roles.
Women’s Leadership Connection Lunch shall introduce C-suite executives, decision-makers and board members which are dedicated towards fostering diversity and inclusion. A platform will also be provided for the attendees in order to share insights along with relevant discussions for the advancement of women’s headship in boardrooms in Saudi Arabia.
IWBD’s Co-founder and Managing Director, Poonam Chawla said in her remark, “Bringing IWBD to Saudi Arabia is a significant achievement. Our objectives are ambitious yet achievable. We aspire to raise awareness of the positive impact of gender diversity on corporate boards, including enhancements in key performance indicators, profitability, and community growth.”
She continued, “We collaborate with local and international entities to advocate for the appointment of more women as board directors, leveraging executive head-hunters and engaging with HR directors in the community. Vision 2030 has laid the groundwork, and we aim to build upon that success. We hope to replicate the achievements we've seen in the UAE over the past three years and evolve into a robust community of women supporting women.”
This step by IWBD shall turn out to be a great celebration and an opportunity for the women in Middle East. The Saudi Arabian’s women will get support which can help to thrive in the corporate realm.
