Dear younger me: 6 leadership lessons from CIOs on International Women’s Day – ETCIO
Every year, International Women’s Day is a moment to celebrate progress, recognize challenges, and reaffirm our commitment to equality in leadership. As we acknowledge the trailblazing women in technology and business, it’s also a time for reflection on lessons learned, barriers overcome, and the wisdom that shapes tomorrow’s leaders.
For many women in technology, stepping into leadership comes with unique challenges: navigating bias, proving expertise, and balancing visibility with authenticity. Yet, it also brings opportunities—to drive change, to mentor the next generation, and to leave a legacy of resilience and innovation. To mark this occasion, ETCIO turned to some of the most inspiring women leaders in technology. If they could write a letter to their younger selves, what advice would they give? Their reflections provide a roadmap for aspiring leaders, offering insights into the power of confidence, strategic thinking, overcoming bias, and the importance of visibility in career growth.
Here’s what they would tell their younger selves and every leader stepping into their power today.
