@ambika_parmar @saplabsindia @umaranitm @NathanChendil @darshan1974 @debaban1 @SAPAriba @shraddhanjali_r We have a comprehensive D&I training called Focus on Insights - consists of 7 modules each focussed on a specific topic: Cultural intelligence, Gender Intelligence, LGBT inclusion, Generational Intelligence, Inclusion of differently abled people, and team diversity intelligence.

@saplabsindia @umaranitm @NathanChendil @darshan1974 @debaban1 Of several ways, I feel highlighting, celebrating women’s achievements, success is essential ; for women to challenge their inhibitions, to gain more self-confidence and break the ceiling, we need to bring to light more role models to look upto. #SAPLabsIWD #pressforprogress

What is your personal commitment to help women press for progress in their careers? @umaranitm @NathanChendil @darshan1974 @_UmaMaheswaran @debaban1 #pressforprogress #SAPLabsIWD2018

@ishii0611 @umaranitm @debaban1 @NathanChendil @darshan1974 Unconscious bias plays a role in decision making and this is what we need to overcome by creating awareness. Technology is a great enabler in helping eliminate bias from decisions related to people. #SAPLabsIWD #pressforprogress @saplabsindia

Do you think opportunities are being withheld from women because of assumptions about gender roles? @umaranitm @_UmaMaheswaran @debaban1 @NathanChendil @darshan1974 #saplabsindiaiwd #SAPIndiaIWD #PressforProgress

@naveenkeshava @saplabsindia @umaranitm @NathanChendil @darshan1974 @debaban1 Yes, it is a hard fact and we need recognize, accept and overcome ; Some of the examples are Affinity Bias, Halo Effect, Perception Bias, Confirmation Bias, Group Think and most important form of uncounsious bias is Gender Bias... #pressforprogress #SAPLabsIWD @saplabsinda

@saplabsindia @umaranitm @NathanChendil @darshan1974 @_UmaMaheswaran @debaban1 Does Bias really exists in corporates? What are some of the examples you have seen?

How can both women and men work together to overcome unconscious bias at the workplace? @umaranitm @NathanChendil ,@darshan1974 @_UmaMaheswaran @debaban1 #pressforprogress #SAPLabsIWD

@saplabsindia @umaranitm @NathanChendil @darshan1974 @debaban1 Future-Focus will be on High Impact D&I by moving up levels of Inclusiveness as outlined in Research findings by Bersin by Deloitte -> from Compliance-focused D&I to Programmatic D&I to Leader-owned D&I to an Inclusive Culture where everyone owns D&I #SAPLabsIWD #pressforprogress

How have technology organizations evolved over the years to become more inclusive? What are your predictions for the future? @umaranitm @NathanChendil @darshan1974 @_UmaMaheswaran @debaban1 #pressforprogress #SAPLabsIndiaIWD

@saplabsindia @umaranitm @NathanChendil @darshan1974 @debaban1 Demonstrating Inclusiveness across Talent Lifecycle-Attract, Develop, Retain - being an equal opportunity employer, personalized development programs for career growth and best-in class inclusive people policies has been key mantra for success #SAPLabsIWD #pressforprogress

@GSukhmani @debaban1 @saplabsindia Continuing to drive awareness on unconscious bias, creating an inclusive culture collectively with Men as Allies. #pressforprogress

As we #pressforprogress what is our one main goal this year in line with the theme? @_UmaMaheswaran and @debaban1 #SAPpressesforprogress #IWD2018 #SAPLabsIndiaIWD2018 #PressforProgress #SAPLabsIndiaIWD #SAPIndiaIWD @saplabsindia

@utkarsh_jain93 @shraddhanjali_r @saplabsindia Focused developmental programs for women is essential to creating a healthy pipeline of women leaders. At SAP we have a wide range of programs for women at different career levels to enable them with skills and onfidence. #PressforProgress #SAPLabsIWD

What differentiates SAP’s diversity efforts from other tech organizations? @_UmaMaheswaran @shraddhanjali_r #PressforProgress #SAPLabsIWD2018 @saplabsindia

@utkarsh_jain93 @_UmaMaheswaran @saplabsindia Our comprehensive approach & #commitment from #attraction via dedicated talent events, balanced pipeline #development- customised program for across every level, #retention via best in class policy and benefits !

@saplabsindia @umaranitm @NathanChendil @darshan1974 @debaban1 Unconscious Biases affects one’s Perception, Attitude, Behaviors, Attention to details and Listening skills. Women and men have to make a conscious effort to embed gender equality in every practice at workplace so that it becomes a new norm #SAPLabsIWD #pressforprogress

@utkarsh_jain93 @shraddhanjali_r @saplabsindia Leadership commitment & alignment, comprehensive efforts to support women with custom development programs, flexible policies to help managing family/home & creating an inclusive, bias free culture are unique aspects of our Gender Diversity effort. #Pressforprogress #SAPLabsIWD

@saplabsindia @umaranitm @NathanChendil @darshan1974 @_UmaMaheswaran @debaban1 #breaking myths - challenging #stereotypes , calling out #UnconsciousBias and bringing out our #authentic selfs for true #inclusion

@sunshinebnglr By evangelizing men as diversity ambassadors they can take up the responsibility to spread awareness on gender parity. We can also involve male colleagues to ideate and drive diversity and inclusion initiatives. SAP's MARC is one such example #pressforprogress @saplabsindia

Sometimes men feel excluded from the dialogue on gender parity. How do you make sure that you don’t alienate men? @_UmaMaheswaran #PressforProgress #SAPLabsIndiaIWD #SAPIndiaIWD
