Stabroek Business (SB) recently sat down with Rowena Elliot, the president of the Women’s Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Guyana to discuss the issue of the ‘glass ceiling’ which is said to be inhibiting women’s upward mobility, especially in the corporate world, and the steps her organisation is taking to counter this and empower women in Guyana to achieve their full potential.
SB: What would you say have been the primary accomplishments of your organisation up to this time?
RE: The growth in membership, partially attributed to the collaborative work with the Centre for Local Business Development’s ‘Accelerate Her’ Programme.
