International Women's Day 2021

At Selby Jennings, we value initiatives that advance diversity in Financial Services around the world. We believe in our role in driving gender equality and actively providing women with equal opportunities for career progression.

Next to internal activities such as workshops on discovering unconscious bias and lunch & learn sessions with a speaker from the Employers Network for Equality & Inclusion (ENEI), we are highlighting some of our key female employees and what International Women's Day means to them.

Additionally, we have invited some of our clients to talk about their efforts in creating a more gender equal world.
