But it\u2019s important for women to be able to bring their full, authentic selves to work because women have so much to offer. As the International Women\u2019s Day theme says this year, we all need to work together to break the bias, whether it\u2019s being talked over or not having a seat at the table, because that\u2019s the only way we will create equality both at work and outside of it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">That\u2019s not to say there aren\u2019t some big barriers to change we need to overcome as we envision a more equal world. One of the biggest, in my opinion, is for the industry to proactively listen to women and seek to truly understand women\u2019s needs. There are so many ways we can be working towards creating a more equal world, but if we start by listening to an urgent need or one you know you can have a direct impact on, identify that need and start there. It can seem overwhelming because we know there are so many changes that need to be made, but don\u2019t let that keep you from taking action once you\u2019ve listened and identified a way to help create that change.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The technology\/channel industry can play an important role in reaching this point by focusing on creating and supporting an environment where women can thrive. For instance, at N&#8209;able, we recently launched our women\u2019s Community of Interest (COI) called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.n-able.com\/press\/press-releases\/n-able-wins-comparably-award-for-best-companies-for-women-2021?promo=blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WONDER\u2014Women of N&#8209;able Defining Equality and Respect<\/a>. This community is just one of many ways we\u2019re working to create a supportive environment for women to build a sense of belonging, share feedback on their experiences, and continuously learn and grow together with their members and allies. Again, it\u2019s particularly important in the tech industry for companies to create space to listen to feedback from women in their organization and work together to take action and drive change.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><i>Kathleen Pai is chief people officer at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.n-able.com?promo=blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">N&#8209;able<\/a><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marking International Women\u2019s Day, Kathleen Pai looks at how the technology\/channel industry can create an environment where women can thrive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":80,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-30010","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","topic-life-at-nable"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.2 (Yoast SEO v27.2) -
