However, this discussion has not brought remarkable changes on participation, representation and discrimination percentages that women deal with in the company environment.<\/p>\n<p>Even though many businesses recognize now what dangers can occur when they do not deal with gender inequalities, and understand the benefits that the elimination of discrimination and the work empowerment of women can offer, many of them do not possess the experience and the technical know-how that would allow them to make the next step and design doable plans for the application of equality principles on every domain of their activities.<\/p>\n<p>Women on Top recognizes this difficulty and wish to deal with it on this year\u2019s seminar.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2018\u2019s Conference<\/strong><br \/>\nIn last year\u2019s conference, over 80 participants attended speeches from company executives who invest actively in their female potential, like Microsoft Hellas, Vodafone Greece and Nestl\u00e9, as well as talks from WHENin Business partners regarding dealing with sexual harassment and the communicating dimension of adopting equality policies in business.<\/p>\n<p><b>2019&#8217;s goal<br \/>\n<\/b>Having answered why equality in the workplace is important, now it is time to see how it is applied in a company on a daily practice.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why we changed the structure and the content that you may have expected from a typical conference; we recruited our best partners and we designed an all-day event that combines knowledge with practical application, training with networking, and the passion for the business world with the vision and the practical steps that can make this world better for all of us.<\/p>\n<p>Through an interactive game of simulation, with the help of specific case studies, and best practices from the seminar\u2019s companies-supporters, the participants will work on six key axes that define how actively a company invests in gender equality.<\/p>\n<p>During the conference, with the guidance of specialized WHEN partners, the participants and their groups will be requested to draw strategies, tools and solutions that will make the goal -that is equality- something more than just a theory: an innovative but doable plan made from practical and specific steps, appropriate for the broadminded and responsible employer the new generation of talents is looking for.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><b>The six key axes of equality in business<\/b><\/p>\n<p>1.
