The Women in Gaming (WIG) Conference<\/a> held digitally and was attended by over 120 participants from different parts of the world.<\/p>\n

Participants listened to the Industry Success stories from\u00a0Lena Nordin<\/a>, CHRO at Betsson Group and how to create diverse culture and achieve gender balance.<\/p>\n

Natasha Whittaker<\/a> Director of HR at Microgaming told us how innovation in diversity important to the industry and its creativity.<\/p>\n

All participants agree that Gaming industry should be a leader in diverse culture, as we have so many industry corporate examples already.<\/p>\n

Jennifer Bowman from IGT told participants about personal journey in the industry and how mentoring helped her on many occasions. Jennifer\u2019s inspiring story was a powerful listen and allowed many participants to identify with her\u00a0story<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Women in Gaming conference also had the pleasure to hear from Fiona\u00a0\u00a0Buckley\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0on\u00a0\u00a0\u201cMake friends with your Inner Critic\u201d\u00a0<\/strong>The Inner critic refers to the voices in our head that can turn any situation into a negative one. There are 7 inner critics and when ignored can act as serious blockers to our self-improvement and self-development. It results in us wasting out energy over analysing many situations like meetings and relationships with colleagues and stakeholders. Learn how to make friends with your inner critic to overcome personal & professional challenges<\/p>\n

\u00a0On 8 March the very busy zoom conference participants learned about\u00a0industry achievements\u00a0and how to create a diverse culture. We all agree that the only way forward\u00a0for any business is to create a sustainable framework.<\/p>\n
