The theme for International Women's Day 2024, "#InspireInclusion," is being embraced by Assetz Capital as they celebrate women's achievements and advocate for a diverse, equitable, and inclusive world. Employees of the company have shared their thoughts on the significance of this day and their experiences working in a predominantly male industry.

Zoe Langer, a Change Manager at Assetz Capital, reflected on her personal experience with inclusion. After becoming a mother, she found it challenging to connect with younger mothers in her local Mother & Baby group. She eventually overcame this barrier by initiating conversations, illustrating the importance of inspiring inclusion both personally and for others. "We shouldn’t let our own perceptions stop us from being included," Langer emphasized.

Irene Thomas, Operations Director at the firm, highlighted that leadership transcends gender. In male-dominated fields, she believes adapting communication skills can be crucial. "It’s important to always stand strong when making a statement," Thomas advised while stressing the importance of mentorship and continuous learning.

Andrew Charnley, Managing Director at Assetz Capital, expressed his commitment to women's empowerment and gender equality. He noted progress over the past decade but acknowledged more work remains. "For me, gender equality will be achieved when all barriers to females are removed," Charnley stated.

Alan Stevens, Head of Business Improvement at Assetz Capital, supports creating an inclusive workforce where gender does not determine suitability for roles. He has observed increasing female representation in senior positions and traditionally male-dominated fields like technology. Stevens believes mentorship plays a vital role in fostering career opportunities for women and marginalized genders.
