EP13 | The Horse of Course | Empowering Women Through Sport

This special episode features a live panel discussion webinar recorded on 29th October 2020 in partnership with our title sponsor, Societe Generale, with the theme of how sport can empower women in all aspects of life. Rugby provides the perfect example of sport as a force for women’s empowerment through its values of teamwork and commitment, which Societe Generale has celebrated during its 30-year sponsorship of the game globally and though its seven seasons as title sponsor of Valley RFC in Hong Kong. In the ’60 minutes’ all-staff webinar co-organised by the Gender Diversity Network (SG For She) and Valley RFC, Grant Beuzeval, Valley RFC’s Chief Operating Officer, steered a dialogue with three successful and energetic women who have succeeded in business, life and sport; Gaelle Olivier - CEO of Societe General Asia Pacific and ultra trail runner Ada Tsang - Hong Kong's first woman to climb Mount Everest Kim Boreham - former Valley RFC rugby player and Chairperson and partner at Tanner De Witt law firm. The trio shared their insights into three broad themes: competitiveness, confidence and improvement; stress and managing work/life balance; and their advice to the viewers.
