RECOGNITION FOR women's talent has over the grown a lot past 10 to 15 years. The reason is obvious-there is a war for talent and women constitute a large part of that talent pool.

But issues still remain on parity of pay, unconscious biases in hiring, and how to retain good women talent who need flexibility at certain stages of their lives especially after marriage and during early motherhood. Even here, organisations have realised that they need to be flexible in their approach if they want to retain valuable talent.
