What role and breadth do you believe women leaders have expanded in the post-pandemic world?
Women have made significant progress two years into the COVID-19 epidemic, particularly in high leadership positions. This is a positive sign that deserves to be celebrated after such trying times. Women are more “people-oriented,” more focused according to numerous studies, and spend more time developing and teaching other leaders in their organization.
In the workplace and beyond, there is an obvious need for further knowledge and compassion, and women leaders are clearly the main source of these vital attributes.
We at ESSC have consciously taken on brands led by women founders throughout the years in order to help them expand their business and brand value. It gives me great pleasure to watch a number of my former El Souls become female company entrepreneurs in a variety of industries, transferring the baton of female empowerment and strengthening our tribe.
How have you been navigating through the COVID-19 times, with the quick change to digital, an uncertain economic backdrop, treading unknown waters, and working from home? In the new normal, how do you preserve work-life balance?
Covid-19 has expedited digital change across all industries, and practically every employment will require some level of digital skills and fluency in the post-Covid-19 economy. women proved that they can take after every aspect of life with equal concentration. The pandemic, in my opinion, has been a fantastic teacher, putting El Sol Strategic Consultants in a stronger position than we were in pre-pandemic. ESSC’s short-term goals, for the time being, for the time being, include working with home-grown brands, and ensuring they have a 360-degree vision and other necessities. However, having data-driven strategies and go-to-market services all under one roof sets us apart from the competition. To do what we do, takes a village, and none of it would be possible without the teams who make it all happen. We advocate work-life balance at ESSC.
