#Breakthebias for International Women’s Day 2022 at Contentsquare
- Choose a negative word used to describe women and write it on an A4 white sheet of paper in a black marker (make sure it’s clear to read).
- Then film yourself: Holding it up in front of you for 3 seconds (without speaking). Rip up, scrunch up, or drop that negative word. Wait for 3 seconds and then SAY OUT LOUD the positive word you’d like to replace it with.
Our inspirational female leaders including, Niki Hall, Chief Marketing Officer (who shares her top women mentors in a blog post), Celia Dorr, Chief People Officer, Lucie Buisson, Chief Product Officer, Orly Lynn, Global VP of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, Victoire de Villepin, Chief of Staff, as well as men advocating for women across the company, participated in the video to #breakthebias.
