This web­cast is brought to you as part of the ASUG Women Con­nect pro­gram.


Many orga­ni­za­tions are redefin­ing work­place cul­ture to be more inclu­sive and tol­er­ant in hopes of attract­ing the best tal­ent for the work­force. But this has not always been the case. 

Join ASUG Women Con­nect and Liu­ba Loiko, busi­ness sys­tems expert at Sco­tia­bank, on Aug. 27 as she shares her per­son­al expe­ri­ences as a woman work­ing in Rus­sia and Canada. 

Liu­ba will touch on the dif­fer­ences and sim­i­lar­i­ties she noticed while work­ing in the two coun­tries towards women in the work­place includ­ing career oppor­tu­ni­ties, atti­tudes, legal sup­port, and resources and communities. 

Key Take­aways

  • Would your career path be any dif­fer­ent if an equi­table work­place cul­ture were more devel­oped where and when you start­ed your career?
  • How do you hope an equi­table work­place cul­ture will change the paths of those women who come after you?
