2021 Book Project Together She Soars

The background

In 2020, The Dream Collective brought together 20 leading organisations in Japan to create a first-of-its-kind book, Together, She Shines Brighter, with the goal of revolutionising the gender equality landscape in Japan. The book ignited a conversation that created so much momentum, we felt compelled to create the next edition.

The book

Change doesn’t happen on its own. It’s created by a collective force of individuals working towards the same goal.

TDC Global united business leaders, key opinion leaders and advocates of change from some of Japan’s most established brands to contribute to their book released in 2021, Together, She Soars.

The book contains personal stories from individuals and organisations on how they empowered, mentored, sponsored or supported women in their lives to reach their full potential and collectively sponsor a minimum of 100 high-potential young professional women into leadership development training.

In light of the coronavirus pandemic and the significant shifts in the corporate landscape in Japan, the book focused on stories around how participating businesses:

Created innovation from a crisis and how that contributed to female advancement
Showed resilience in their careers and leadership
Bounced back from a difficult time / problem
Created an environment for women to progress in their careers

Audit Manager, HILTI
I am really grateful that I got the opportunity to join this program. The most important take-away I have from this program is that I have a different way of evaluating myself, which in turns makes me more confident in who I am. It is also great to know that I am not alone in this journey and that I am sharing the same path with so many like minded young women out there.

Thank you for another wonderful workshop! The energy was inspirational, and you could feel the leadership confidence in the room growing and growing. Always awesome to work with TDC Global as we strive to make a more inclusive environment that ensures anyone from any background can thrive and succeed.

After each of the sessions, we ran the post-program survey and we saw a clear impact with the increase in understanding and confidence levels of diversity, equity, inclusion, and allyship. The participants were highly engaged and we saw them being very brave, open and vulnerable. Finally, being able to have those conversations in the team has also fostered greater connections, which we can feel ever since the workshop.

Head of Training & Certification, Amazon Web Services
TDC Global brought our vision to life and worked consistently to maximise its success. It has been an incredible partnership and we are so appreciative of the tremendous work that they have consistently put in. Every team member has supported our mission with so much enthusiasm and it’s been a true pleasure to work with them. We are very proud of the impact that we have been able to achieve through SheDares and the number of women that we have reached and inspired to consider a career in technology, and provide them with pathways to entry. We look forward to continuing to drive impact together in the future.
