| | | | It’s International Women’s Day, and at FitFlop, we get up in the morning to ‘make shoes for superwomen’. We believe that an inspired life starts with having a great foundation, and so in addition to creating the world’s most supportive footwear, we hope to motivate, guide, teach, learn from, and empower women both near and far, to rise, and to shine. At FitFlop, we are proud to have an inclusive work culture where women's careers thrive, and every member of our team’s achievements are celebrated equally. We have a female founder, our workforce is 68% female, and 50% of our Director Level team is female. Nikeisha (above) is our Supply Operations Manager. | | | This year, the IWD group is inviting all of us to participate in #ChooseToChallenge, by raising a hand, snapping and posting a selfie, and promising to challenge instances of gender inequality, bias and questioning stereotypes. The collage above features members of our team. We’d love for you to do the same on social. Hashtag #ChooseToChallenge and #IWD2021 and if you remember, tag FitFlop & @internationalwomensday_global (so we see you)! | | | There are so many inspirational women in the world, that we’ve kicked off our new Superwomen Blog with a short feature on four whose current missions are particularly uplifting (if you read carefully, you’ll see there are actually 8, but once you cast the net, it’s almost impossible to stop). | | | | | “I’ve been very fortunate in my life to have role models who never considered my gender a barrier to me achieving big dreams, and so I never even questioned whether being female would get in the way of my moving forward. We need to make equality the new normal. It will take focus, education, and determination, but I feel sure that we all have that. Let’s not just #ChooseToChallenge today, but every day. Hands in the air, everybody!” | | | | | |
