Jasbir Pannu, Regional Head HR - APAC, Swiss Re, said, "By building a culture that allows a myriad of experiences, identities, professional expertise etc. to work together, we are inspiring people to thrive in today's dynamic, fast-paced digital world."
According to Pannu, society shapes the perception of women about themselves through unconscious biases and moulds their opinion to reinforce the idea of patriarchy in their minds. Speaking of equality in the workforce, Pannu pointed that one cannot ask for equality if they are expecting to be treated differently for their gender. She added, "We must be careful of what we teach our next generation, and how conscious we must be about it."

Amit Kalra, Head of Global Business Solutions Centre Bangalore, says, "At Swiss Re, inclusion is at the heart of our strategy. Whether it be inclusion with regard to thoughts, expertise, education, gender identity and sexual orientation, age, profession, ethnicity or any other aspect of our being, we believe and have seen over the years that such diversity together enriches us and makes us stronger."
