Chargebacks911 Founder Monica Eaton was recently interviewed by The Paypers to discuss gender equality in the business industry and the importance of women filling roles at the C-level.
The Paypers is a Netherlands-based leading independent source of news and analysis products for the global fintech, payments, and eCommerce industry. The company’s products are aimed at merchants, payment service providers, processors, financial institutions, fintech companies, and technology vendors. Their focus is on major global trends and developments in digital channels, digital transactions, digital identity, and securing transactions.
The fintech space is dynamic and fast moving. Drawing on diverse perspectives allow for more responsive and innovative developments. Companies that fail to recognize and act on this point may be in trouble.
“The repercussions of a workplace without the right engagement and culture in place are not short-lived,” Monica explains. “If not addressed, companies are at risk of impacting their future recruitment and retention of women leaders who could otherwise make a powerful impact elsewhere, maybe even providing their cultural acumen and money-making abilities to a competitor.”
Monica points to ways in which companies can be more proactive. Some of these include zero-tolerance policies for discrimination or harassment, reviewing company culture, and alleviating burnout.
“It’s critical for women in leadership roles to be able to stay focused and nurture a sense of empathy that can have a transformative impact on businesses globally. At Chargebacks911, we value these characteristics and strive to measure our diversity and inclusion efforts.”
