This International Women鈥檚 Day,聽Desautels researcher,聽Janani Ramesh is urging us to see the big picture鈥攂y focusing a little less directly on success stories of individual women. 鈥淚nitiatives that celebrate how far women聽have聽come or single out women鈥檚 resilience do the opposite of what鈥檚 intended,鈥� Ramesh told HR Reporter.

They聽locate聽the problem in women, rather than in organizational policies,聽practices聽and processes.鈥� Instead, Ramesh recommends highlighting a concrete issue from a company鈥檚 Employee Voice survey, and explaining the steps taken to address it.

鈥淲hat obstacles did you face? What work remains to be done?鈥� Ramesh says. 鈥淎cknowledge your pitfalls and limitations.聽That鈥檚聽what true transparency, accountability, and employee voice looks like. Women employees will appreciate this more than any symbolic initiative.鈥�
