In Women’s Month, Orange Egypt seizes the opportunity to shed light on its powerhouse women who lead from the heart, mentor, inspire, and unleash their potential for the bigger benefit of not only the company, but the employees and coworkers as well. This month, Orange Egypt makes it a reminder of what women are capable to do, not just a day or a month a year, but all year round.
Orange Egypt is proud to have a work environment that embraces diversified talents, where females represent a huge part of it. Women play a leading role inside the Company, on all levels and in all fields. Orange promotes March as the month dedicated to these women introducing special activities throughout the month with focus on the International Women’s Day and Mother’s Day as significant occasions.
This year, Orange Egypt decided that the conscious focus will be to “Push the Numbers” of qualified females in the workplace especially in the technical fields; the numbers are pushed when the focus is on talent not gender. Today, 40% of Orange Egypt Leadership team are females who mentor to other ladies inside the organization.
The four inspirational ladies have shared their thoughts on how we break the bias and their advice on how women can live up to their own expectations not that of others.
“The path to success is not easy and it is more difficult for women. Yet we are the ones with the power to determine our own potential. You can be both a successful mother and a career-oriented woman. Breaking the bias starts with believing in ourselves and making sure that we extend our expertise and support other females in their journeys,” commented Maha Nagy, Chief Communications Officer.
Tania Asmar, Orange Egypt Chief of Staff, has shared “I believe women need to overcome their own constraints & boundaries that limit their career choices. Inheriting the mindset ‘it’s a man’s job”, should no longer exist. Looking around us women have proven they are competent, innovative and passionate to be judges, CEO, pilots, mechatronic engineers…etc.Do not doubt your abilities, you are in control! You can take on any challenge if you set your mind to it!”
On the other hand, Rania Gharib, Chief Legal, Regulatory and Compliance Officer, stated “The Egyptian woman is well known for her strong will and her ability to influence her environment. She is the driving force behind the success of those around her. With her determination, she can reach her dreams and overcome any obstacles.”
Commenting on this occasion, Orange Egypt Chief Financial Officer, Marwa El Ayouti said “Corporates are witnessing dramatic change, with young ladies penetrating the technical fields and filling managerial and senior leadership roles in different areas. Leading key roles in organizations comes from your own ambition and willingness. Own your career, be determined, take risks and work on your own development and you will reach your ambition.”
