On International Women's Day, I want to emphasise the importance of building cultures where women are given genuine space, influence, and opportunities for growth. Good leadership means creating safe environments where everyone can thrive and contribute with their unique perspectives⭐️

KONE , my company, is a global leader in the elevator and escalator industry, which remains predominantly male-dominated. Still we are committed to fostering career development and opportunities for women. This commitment does not happen by chance; it is a fundamental part of KONE's strategy and culture💙

We have set clear ambitions, including a global target that 35% of director-level positions will be held by women by 2030. This target is more than just a number — it reflects a strategic belief that diversity is essential for innovation and long-term success!

So to all women out there; Happy International Women's Day — let's continue lifting each other up! 🤩
