Priscilla Iyari, a career strategist and author has called for an accelerated action to empower women as the world observes International Women’s Day (IWD).
Speaking on the IWD, Iyari said: “This year’s theme, “Accelerate Action,” emphasizes the urgency of pushing boundaries, breaking barriers, and creating a more inclusive world for women.
“The International Women’s Day is more than just a celebration, it is a movement, a global call to action to break barriers, challenge norms, and create a more equitable world for women everywhere.
“This year’s theme, Accelerate Action, underscores the urgency of pushing forward, seizing opportunities, and driving meaningful change. It is in this spirit that we spotlight Priscilla Iyari and her groundbreaking new book —a timely and powerful guide that empowers professionals, particularly women, to navigate career and personal transitions with clarity and confidence.
“In today’s fast-changing professional world, women often find themselves at critical crossroads—whether shifting careers, stepping into leadership roles, relocating for new opportunities, or redefining their personal and professional identities. Unfortunately, these transitions can often feel overwhelming and lonely, with limited guidance readily available.”
“For too long, career wisdom and mentorship have been limited to those with access to elite networks. In a world where women continue to face systemic barriers to career advancement, shared knowledge and mentorship are critical accelerators for progress.
“To every woman standing at the edge of her next big leap, this is your moment to accelerate action. Because when women rise, industries shift, businesses transform, and societies thrive.”
