This year, the theme for International Women’s Day “Women in leadership: Achieving an equal future in a COVID-19 world,” celebrates the tremendous efforts by women and girls around the world in shaping a more equal future and recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and highlights the gaps that remain.
Bowker Motor Group is proud to employ many women who have helped to lead us through these uncertain times. To celebrate International Women’s Day we challenged them to share their proudest achievement and offer some advice in the spirit of equality and a better future.
Happy International Women’s Day!!
Amy Lancaster-Hall, Group Marketing Manager
Proudest achievement: Seeing my team's dedication recognised when we win franchise marketing awards. There's no better feeling.
Best advice: Be understanding, approachable and always offer to help.
Phillipa Wachter, Showroom Team Leader
Proudest achievement: Moving to Abu Dhabi at 23 on my own to start a career as Cabin Crew for Etihad Airways.
Best advice: Surround yourself with positive people and support other women in your company and your personal life.
Aimee Keane, Group HR Manager
Proudest achievement: My proudest achievement is studying for my CIPD qualification while raising a young family and working full time. Although it was challenging, it gave me the opportunity to progress in my previous employment and opened the door to further progression in other businesses.
I was offered my current position during maternity leave with my 2nd child. I made the decision to return from maternity leave early to start my new challenge; working for an established family business in a job where I feel valued. I enjoy supporting the business and the employees.
Best advice: Support each other, always listen and offer an open-door policy. Continue personal progression- don’t wait for good things to happen, go get out there and make them happen.
Jennifer Sage, Group Marketing Executive
Proudest achievement: My proudest achievement is the fact that I used lockdown to learn many new things, from learning how to bake bread, pizza dough with stuffed crust and many Romanian desserts, to becoming a painter, decorator and plumber, completing a number of jobs around the house. During lockdown my partner and I also tried our hands at gardening, like many others, growing our own tomatoes, shallots and chillies.
Best advice: Be supportive, willing to listen and push yourself and others to reach their potential.
