Maria Patrikiou, Corporate Communications Manager, Globe One Digital: " Being a new mom is demanding and stressful on its own, let alone when balancing motherhood with managing a demanding role and career. Working remotely and flexible hours was the only solution for me that allowed me to be present for my child in the first years of her life while also enabling me to continue pursuing my career efficiently and productively. It has provided a much less stressful way to navigate the challenges of juggling the responsibilities of being both a mom and a career woman simultaneously."
Ilianna Mathioudaki, Head of Social Media, Globe One Digital: "At Globe One Digital, working in an environment that values gender equality has been transformative. It's empowering to be part of a company that not only embraces diversity but also actively works towards creating equal opportunities for everyone. This commitment fosters innovation, collaboration, and a workplace where every individual can flourish."
At Globe One Digital, we're not just envisioning an equal working environment; we're actively creating it. In our pursuit of excellence, gender diversity is not a point of discussion; it's an inherent part of our identity, shaping a workplace where individuals thrive and collectively contribute to our shared success.
As we celebrate International Women's Day, Globe One Digital stands firm in its commitment to fostering an inclusive workplace. Our initiatives, policies, and practices reflect not only our dedication to gender equality but also our proactive approach in making it a seamless part of our corporate culture. We believe that gender diversity is not just a goal but a living reality that contributes to a dynamic and thriving workforce.
