Flow supports International Women’s Day events

FLOW participated in a range of initiatives to mark International Women’s Day, honouring the achievements of women and advocating for gender equality both in the workplace and beyond.

This year’s theme, Accelerate Action, aligns with Flow’s ongoing commitment to fostering greater inclusion, empowerment, and support for women and girls within the company and in the communities it serves, said a media release.

Flow’s involvement included attending, hosting, and sponsoring key events, as well as participating in panel discussions aimed at empowering women, promoting diversity, and driving leadership development.

To celebrate the women within its workforce, Flow engaged over 200 employees in an empowering and motivational session on March 13, the release said.

The event featured a motivational talk by Roberta Norman-Reverand, Flow’s newly appointed director of technology operations, who shared her personal journey and insights on navigating leadership challenges as a woman in the tech industry. Flow’s vice president and general manager Simone Martin-Sulgan and senior manager - communications, Yolande Agard-Simmons took part in a symbolic signing of the Women-in-Leadership Sustainability Pledge, reaffirming their commitment to supporting women in the business world at NGC Green’s Sunrise Sustainability Series: Illuminating Pathways for Women in Sustainable Business.

This event brought together an inspiring mix of seasoned and emerging female leaders from across Trinidad and Tobago. The panellists discussed the crucial intersection of women’s leadership and sustainability, the release said.

At the AmChamTT Women’s Leadership Conference panel discussion, titled Wait, What?! – Bridging the Gap Between What Women Say and What Men Hear, Flow’s Martin-Sulgan shared valuable perspectives on how men can better support and empower women in the workplace, addressing common challenges and fostering stronger alliances for gender equality.

“Diversity and inclusion are fundamental drivers of innovation and success,” said Martin-Sulgan.

“International Women’s Day offers the perfect opportunity to celebrate the incredible women who have paved the way in our industry and to inspire the next generation of female leaders.”

Flow remains committed to empowering women and advocating for gender equality, striving to create a more inclusive future for all.
