Happy International Women’s Day!

Happy International Women’s Day from Pillar Search & HR Consulting, a proud woman-owned small business!

According to the International Women’s Day website, “March 8 is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity.  International Women’s Day (IWD) has occurred for well over a century, with the first​ ​IWD gathering in 1911 supported by over a million people in Austria, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland. Prior to this the​ Socialist Party of America, United Kingdom’s Suffragists and Suffragettes, and further groups campaigned for women’s equality.  Today, IWD belongs to all groups collectively everywhere.  IWD is not country, group or organization specific.​  Make IWD your day – everyday.”
