Emerging Europe Talks She’s Next with Dan Baxter 

“There’s been a lot of positive discussion and some positive progress when it comes to gender equality around the world, […] but I think clearly there’s much more to be done to truly ensure the level of equality that we all aspire to and I think men have to play a vital role in that,” said Dan Baxter, Vice President Corporate Communications for Central & Eastern Europe, Middle East and Africa at Visa, in conversation with Emerging Europe’s Andrew Wrobel. 

This is why halfway through the first series of Emerging Europe Talks She’s Next empowered by Visa, we take a look at the role of men in the development of female empowerment as the process must include the awareness and engagement of men.

“One of the steps is ensuring that you have a diverse work force to start with and setting very clear goals which are measured to ensure that you’re continuing to increase the level of diversity within the organisation. […] We need to show that there are significant benefits of having more women in the workplace, but also in the company environment.” 

“Involving men in initiatives such as She’s Next contributes to a broader understanding that diversity is an enormous benefit in a workplace. I am also delighted to be the podcast host and I very much hope I will be able to help raise awareness about diversity and the value of female entrepreneurship,” Andrew added.
