Many young women dream of a successful career.

New figures show that women are prioritising their career more than ever before. Women are ambitious, talented and willing to put in the time and effort. The opportunities are available, so why not just do it?

Nicole edelenbos’s story:

“At the start of my career, I worked in extremely male sectors: insurance, property and football. At first, it never occurred to me that my being a woman would affect my career. I only realised this later after seeing that too many women with the potential and the ambition to get to the top were deciding to leave.”

During her career, Edelenbos noticed that women are viewed differently and that valuable female qualities are appreciated less than male qualities, despite the fact that women have much more to offer than they are currently able to show.
