National Bank of Kuwait, in line with its continuous efforts towards creating an environment of strong professional support for all NBK employees in a strategy aiming to promote women’s leadership in the organization, country, region, and the world.
Women represent 5 out of 10 corporate staff worldwide; however, out of every 10 top executives around the world, only 2 are women. To change this misbalance, NBK RISE will work toward changing mindsets and promoting women’s leadership in Kuwait, the region, and the world. Engaging, inspiring, and motivating women across regions, sectors, and specializations, the program will create a community of women leaders to sustain and grow the initiative.
By creating an environment of learning and continuous support, NBK RISE will change mindsets and create an environment for corporate leaders to cultivate the talent of their female leaders and prepare them to join higher leadership roles.
NBK RISE will give the tools, confidence, and the opportunity to talented female candidates and enable them to become influential leaders, helping them break through into boardrooms and executive committees, be involved and drive decisions in the future.
