Watch Nishtha Anand talk about why it makes economic sense for businesses and countries to invest in Gender Equality. Ms. Nishtha Anand is a strategy professional with experience in investment banking and strategy and has worked across India and Singapore, after having completed her MBA from Indian Institute of Foreign Trade, Delhi. A seasoned professional with close to a decade of work experience, she has established herself as a collaborative young leader with the distinctive ability to ideate and implement transformation projects focused on people, processes and culture. During her career, she witnessed a lack of women leaders in different arenas—corporates, academia, bureaucracy, etc. Driven by her passion for inclusion, she started work on her book, “Awakening the Rainmaker - A Guide to Gender Equality for Individuals and Organizations”, with a vision of forming an equality handbook for daily life and the workplace. Ms. Anand hopes to nudge women, their families and organisations with practical hacks for awakening the rainmaker in them and in those around them. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
