  • The Buzz [May 2020/updated January 2021]: “Women are in the bullseye of this pandemic … In leisure, hospitality, education, health care and retail — the sectors that are getting hit the hardest — women are the ones who are falling victim to the first massive waves of this economic crisis.… Women are disproportionately those who do the lowest paid jobs in our economy… women of color in particular are over-represented.” (Emily Martin, VP, National Women’s Law Center, www.cnbc.com/2020/05/14/coronavirus-job-losses-disproportionately-impact-women.html] From the 2020 start of the COVID-19 pandemic, it was apparent that the economic crisis affected women more than men – 61%, according to some reports. In this “She-cession”, the financial challenges, career-juggling burden, children’s education, and shortages of food and other necessities fell disproportionately on women. Today, as the economy opens up and we enter a “She-covery” period, some analysts project it may take at least a year for most women – up to several years for women of color – to recover. How can businesses, IT and technology use learning systems and financial guidance to help female employees, their families and local communities expedite this She-covery? We’ll ask Maryann Abbajay at SAP, Denise Malecki at PwC and Ali Wyatt at the Female Founder Collective for their insights on “From She-cession to She-covery: Rising from the Pandemic”.
