To celebrate International Women’s Day, we undertook a grand project of doing a special issue on women achievers. We reached out to over 150 women who are at top positions in the BFSI sector, with the objective of interviewing all those who responded. We got 29 responses in all, and Sneha Agrawal, our project manager, interviewed 18 of them over video and 11 by email.
One issue we faced is who should we reach out to. So, we did a dip stick study among young women, most of them final year students, to find their job preference between private sector, public sector and cooperative sector. Among 40 participants in this study, 27 chose private sector, 12 chose public sector and 1 chose cooperative sector. Accordingly, we have chosen maximum number of respondents from the private sector for this project – among banks, insurers and NBFCs.
We feel excited to share the insights and at the same time, we are deeply thankful to all the women who participated in the study.
