She updates: "This FY we have hired 54 women employees across multiple roles up to third quarter. Women occupy a higher ratio in roles at junior and middle management levels. Top leadership comprises of 25% women leaders. My team helps the customers to complete their post-sanction documentation, so they can get the business loan disbursal in the fastest possible time."
ACCEPT INNOVATIVE IDEAS
Gitanjali's team at FlexiLoans comprises almost 50% of women with 25% in leadership positions. The suggestion that the company should outsource call centre activities rather than use inhouse employees came from a woman team member.
