The Executive Vice Chairman, Globacom, Bella Disu, has emphasised the need for the female gender to take their rightful place as co-contributors to corporate and national development.
She spoke at the launch of SheGlows, an initiative of her office in commemoration of the 2024 International Women’s Day.
The theme of the celebration: “Inspire Inclusion: Investing in Women, accelerate progress,” she noted in her speech on Friday, speaks to Globacom’s desire to build, empower and support the career growth and well-being of female employees in the company.
SheGlows is a female mentoring scheme, which cuts across the different cadres of the company.
It was initiated to ensure that women in the management cadre mentor junior cadre women in the system to achieve their career objectives and life goals.
According to Disu, the day presents the opportunity for mentorship, continuous learning and investment in women, who are in the employ of Globacom.
She said: “We intend to inspire collaboration and conviviality, camaraderie and bonding.
“We want women in the business to be who they aspire to be while lending support to the advancement of the company.”
