2023年、ニールセンの社員は3年連続でWomen in Nielsen (WIN) Leadership Summitに参加する機会を得ました。リーダーシップ・サミットでは、ニールセン全体の同僚がインタラクティブなパネル、ディスカッション・グループ、ウェビナーで一堂に会し、互いに学び合い、次世代リーダーのモチベーションとインスピレーションを高めるためのストーリーを共有します。このサミットは、女性の才能と視点を重視する包括的なビジネス文化の形成と維持に努めるビジネス・リソース・グループであるWINが主催しています。
With the theme emPOWERment, Choose Your Yes, attendees left feeling empowered to take their career into their hands and use that power to the fullest. “It’s a reminder that our career doesn’t happen to us; we are active in our pursuits and can make different choices if we aren’t aligned with where things are headed,” said Angela Povia, VP of Client Consulting and a Regional Co-Lead for WIN. Nicole Cetta, Process Lead, agreed that this was the perfect time to talk about empowerment, “Nielsen is going through a time of change, and with change often comes some feelings of uncertainty. Honing in on your value and how to convey that value to others is empowering.”
Despite changes and uncertainty, women remain ambitious and driven at every stage of their careers. McKinsey & Company’s “Women in the Workplace 2023” report found that young women are especially ambitious, with 9 in 10 wanting to be promoted to the next level and 3 in 4 aspiring to become senior leaders. In order to build a safe space where everyone can confidently learn how be empowered in their career, the WIN Summit had 11 panels that showed the different ways we can take control of our future. From The Intentional Professional: The Importance of Developing a Healthy Relationship with your Career Ambitions への Timing is Everything: When To Make Your Next Move, there was something for all attendees to learn at the summit no matter what stage of their career they are in.
In the Stretching for Growth: Assignments that Expand Your Potential session, panelists who took on stretch assignments or facilitated them for others talked about their experiences.
このセッションの企画に携わったクライアント・サービス・マネージャーのゴメス＝アブレウは、次のように語っている。「私たちは往々にして、日々の義務に集中しすぎて、一歩引いてマクロな視点から自分のキャリアを見つめることを忘れてしまいます。ストレッチ・アサインメントは、従業員に力を与え、自分のキャリア・ジャーニーにオーナーシップを持つことを促します。"
WINサミットは、ニールセンの価値観であるインクルージョン、勇気、成長に基づき、ニールセンの全事業部門と全従業員を結びつけ、男性も含めた集合的な学習体験を作り上げました！「サミットを終えて、私は自分自身を擁護する力を得ました。自分のキャリアを前進させようとしている人たちに囲まれていましたが、できる限り手を貸して助けてくれました。他の人たちとのつながりの実感があり、心に残っています。
Even if change and uncertainty surround us, we can choose the path we want to be on. Our professional lives are a product of the decisions we make; knowing ourselves, being prepared, and taking intentional steps will guarantee success. “Focusing on what we can control and what we can do to prepare ourselves, our colleagues, and the industry we serve for [tough] changes is the best use of our time,” said Rich Tunkel, SVP of Sales, WIN sponsor and WIN Summit panelist.
