Breaking down the “professional vs. emotional dichotomy” bias

In the traditional perception, professionalism and sensibility are often placed in a dichotomy, as if professionalism means rationality, rigor, and following established rules, while sensibility represents subjectivity, impulsiveness, and lack of organization. However, when we abandon this dichotomy, we will find that women, with their delicate emotions and keen perception, can inject emotional temperature into the professional field and make technology more humanistic; at the same time, they have been working hard in the professional field with perseverance and excellent wisdom. It can be said that women are the best combination of professionalism and sensibility. They have proved with their actions that professionalism and sensibility are not incompatible with each other, but can create more valuable and attractive results by intermingling with each other.

Women's leadership is uniquely valuable in uncertain times. We are delicate, tolerant and resilient, and we are able to keenly perceive the subtle changes in our team and the market, so that we can unite people and stabilize the team in complex situations. In terms of innovative business models, women are inherently more empathetic, and creating warm products that allow business to go beyond transactions and build emotional connections is a unique advantage for women leaders.

Women at the helm, let's use leadership as the sail and innovation as the oar to ride the waves in the ocean of sustainable development and shine brightly!

--Willie Lui, Chairman and CEO, CDP Group

"Closing the loop from women's personal growth to the creation of social value."

▸ Growing Resilience

“Women need two abilities: the sharpness to break boundaries and innovate, and the stillness to nourish themselves.”

▸ Social empowerment

“The value of women's careers will be magnified 100 times when we use our business skills to solve 1% social problems”

▸ Intergenerational transmission

“True legacy is not the handing over of power, but the passing on of a fervent desire to change the world.”

This 10-hour flow of feminine wisdom perfectly illustrates the core spirit of the invitation - the

“I am rooted, but I flow”

From the sharpness of a sharp suit to the warmth of a flowing gown, the 50 businesswomen leaders interpreted the perfect female creativity with a double-sided narrative: the determination to anchor the direction in the storm, the wisdom to inject temperature into innovation, and the responsibility to guard the spark in the midst of change. Together, they injected more female wisdom and power into the business world.

The waves of the West Lake will eventually merge into the river and the fire of ideas ignited tonight is reconstructing the future genes of business.
