Leadwise: Challenging Norms, Championing Diversity

By F.S. Lakhani

In a world that thrives on diverse perspectives, Leadwise is dedicated to breaking down gender barriers and promoting equality across various professions. We're a non-profit organization committed to addressing the underrepresentation of men in fields like nursing and teaching, and women in technology.

We believe that career choices should be guided by passion and skill, not by outdated stereotypes or societal expectations. Everyone, regardless of gender, deserves the opportunity to pursue their dreams and reach their full potential.

As part of our commitment to fostering diversity in the tech sector, we are excited to announce our partnership with Google Developer Groups (GDG)! Together, we are organizing events specifically designed to encourage and support women in technology.

The tech industry is a driving force for innovation and progress. However, the underrepresentation of women limits the diversity of perspectives and creativity that fuel this field. By collaborating with GDG, we are actively creating opportunities for women to gain the skills, confidence, and connections they need to thrive in tech.

What to Expect from Leadwise x GDG Events:

• Inspiring Speakers: Hear from successful women in tech who will share their personal and professional journeys.
• Hands-on Workshops: Gain practical experience with cutting-edge Google technologies through interactive workshops and codelabs.
• Networking Opportunities: Connect with like-minded individuals, mentors, and potential employers in the tech industry.
• Supportive Community: Join a welcoming community that celebrates diversity and encourages women to pursue their tech ambitions.

While our partnership with GDG is an important step, our mission extends beyond the tech sector. We are equally committed to supporting men who aspire to careers in nursing and teaching. We organize workshops, mentorship programs, and awareness campaigns to challenge stereotypes and create a more inclusive environment in these professions.

Whether you're passionate about technology, education, healthcare, or simply believe in a more equitable future, we invite you to join the Leadwise community. Together, let's challenge norms, champion diversity, and empower individuals to pursue their passions without limitations.

Stay tuned for announcements about our upcoming events!
