A few days ago I was invited to moderate a talk about Women in Leadership at The TopTalents Event. Four successful women argued with personal examples that women are capable to do the same things men can and they should feel free to decide how they should live their lives.

Their answers seemed common sense to me. I never actually felt that being a woman is an obstacle in any way. I know there is a lot of talk about feminism nowadays and there are a lot of campaigns but, accepting the invitation, I wondered if this was still a real issue.

I decided to read Sheryl Sandberg’s “Lean in” – who writes that she didn’t think that gender inequality is still a thing either. Until she experienced it on her own skin. There’s still a lot of pressure from society regarding women’s careers.
