Our third interview as part of Hassans’ Women Leaders in Gibraltar series, our host, Selwyn Figueras and co-host Meera Aswani, talk to Gibraltar-raised Katherine Grant, CEO of Image Graphics and Micro-Business Systems and the only female Director of the Chamber of Commerce in Gibraltar.
Katherine draws on her experience of working in Hewlett Packard in the UK and Geneva – and how she made it to the USA - and highlights how businesses can give back to the local community through corporate social responsibility initiatives and the key challenges faced by small-medium sized business in Gibraltar in this context.
In this inspirational talk, Katherine explains her greatest professional challenge was the impact and uncertainty during the time of the global pandemic. She explains how she navigated through those turbulent times whilst maintaining her commitment to the health and wellbeing of her staff and supporting the local community in Gibraltar.
Katherine explores how she sees gender dynamics play out in the business context as she gives advice to her 20-something self in relation to the powerful impact of a personal achievement which give you resilience and confidence to make progress professionally – whether its competing in a triathlon or starting a new business ‘just do it, don’t overthink it!’
