At INSEAD, the Master in Management (MIM) is more than a programme—it’s a journey that begins with who you are and leads to what you want to achieve.
As part of the Ambition Has No Gender campaign, we celebrate inclusive leadership and challenge gender biases.
By embracing diverse perspectives, young professionals can break barriers and shape a more equitable future.

I believe real change happens when people take action in their everyday interactions. In my career, I want to be someone who actively supports and amplifies voices that might otherwise go unheard.

In a start-up such as my own where funds are tight, there is no room to hire and evaluate based on anything except merit. Going forward, I intend to delegate responsibilities that allow individuals to learn and grow into better professionals, regardless of gender.

Organisations could support advancement in gender equity by creating a work environment with gender parity, avoiding special treatment to any gender, implementing a zero-tolerance policy for gender-based discrimination, and hiring women in leadership positions.

As a founder, I noticed their attention would always gravitate toward my male colleagues, not me. This experience made me acutely aware of how gender bias subtly shapes our daily interactions and decisions.
