The 73 years old Dr Kiran Bedi is a super cop turned politician. She is an inspiration to many. Right from childhood, Kiran Bedi diverted towards uplifting society. To realise her dream, she joined IPS in 1972. And she became the first woman to join IPS. And by doing so, she brought hope and light into the lives of girls and women in the country. As a cop she never took a step back to execute tough assignments and proved to be highly successful, that is why we chose her to address us, said Shubhraa Maheshwari, Chairperson of the FICCI Ladies Organisation (FLO). I am sure our members will get a lot of inspiration from her talk, she added.
She is one of the most powerful women that country has ever seen. Power is not synonymous to strength.. It’s the mental power that can make one move mountains. Some women may be made of flowers n frills but some are made of grit and steel and one such iconic personality is amongst us today she said
Feminism isn’t about making women stronger. Women are already strong, it’s about changing the way the world perceives that strength.
Being herself a most sought after financial professional, Shubhraa chose “Financial Literacy” as the theme for the year
Even though financial literacy is crucial for success, there isn’t much attention paid in our educational institutions.
To be financially literate is to know how to manage your money. But, that skill is left to people to pick up on their own
Financial literacy for women is an important aspect of their independence. It empowers them to make independent decisions either in normal circumstances or in emergencies or unforeseen circumstances.all the programs organised during the year will be centered around Financial Literacy explained Shubhraa.
