With International Women’s Day approaching, the theme “Invest in Women: Accelerate Progress” takes precedence, urging collective action to empower women across all sectors. In the hospitality industry, women are not only breaking barriers but reshaping the narrative of resilience and transformation.
Himabindu Raghava Raju, Branch Executive Director of Platform 65 Bangalore, reflects on the occasion, saying, “As International Women’s Day draws near, I am deeply inspired by the resilience and grace of women in our hospitality realm. As a leader and advocate for women’s empowerment, I recognize the challenges we face as opportunities to reveal our true strength.
In an industry traditionally led by men, we are witnessing a powerful shift. Women are not only shattering the glass ceiling but redesigning the entire structure. As the Director of our branch, I am dedicated to fostering an environment where women thrive, and where their voices are celebrated. The hospitality sector needs more women entrepreneurs and visionaries to reshape the narrative and elevate standards. Let us amplify each other’s voices, embrace diversity, and pave the way for a future where every woman’s potential is realized.”
As we commemorate International Women’s Day, let’s reflect on the progress made, celebrate women’s achievements in hospitality, and commit to investing in each woman’s potential. Through empowerment, support, and genuine recognition, we can accelerate progress, ensuring that women not only endure but truly thrive in the hospitality industry.
This year’s theme resonates with women’s experiences in hospitality. Investing in women means providing equal opportunities and creating nurturing environments that foster growth. It involves recognizing the unique perspectives and contributions that women bring, making the industry more diverse, dynamic, and inclusive.
