« Why Advocate Women and Minority Workplace Equality - Nina Godiwalla »

In Chapter 12 of 22 in her 2011 Capture Your Flag interview, author Nina Godiwalla answers "What Can Organizations Do to Better Support Women and Minorities in the Workplace?"  Godiwalla finds many organizations make hiring women a top priorities but do not put as much emphasis to developing those female employees.  As a result Godiwalla comes to believe companies are not looking out for the best interests of women.  She shares investment banking experiences from when she worked at JP Morgan and associated challenges working in a male-dominated environment.  Godiwalla then discusses specific ways to improve workplace equality for women and minorities.  Godiwalla is the author of "Suits: A Woman on Wall Street". She is also a public speaker on workplace diversity and founder and CEO of Mindworks, where she teaches mind-based stress reduction techniques to help organizations improve employee wellbeing.  Godiwalla holds an MBA from the Wharton School of Business, an MA in Creative Writing from Dartmouth University and her BBA from the University of Texas at Austin.
