Anu Villarosa, the HR Director at Pitcher Partners and parent of four, shared how she balances work and her personal life without sacrificing career goals or time with family.
Ms Villarosa spoke about her path to the role of HR Director and how she unapologetically moved forward in her career while also building her family. She shared tips for women to achieve equality in the workplace, looking at behaviours like over-apologising and over-explaining, and suggesting alternative ways to communicate that are more gender neutral.
The conversation also included insights into different learning paths for women at work, as well as who Ms Villarosa herself looks to for inspiration now that she's in a senior HR role.
In the discussion, Ms Villarosa referenced Justine Figo's networking group of senior HR practitioners who have been supporting each other through the challenges of COVID-19, and Ms Figo's new book: On the same page.
