“Don’t limit yourself because you are female – enjoy the equality and dare to shine yourself and in front of others"

Think Different, but don’t limit yourself as a Female

"Think different - Always be prepared"

As an MNC (multi National Corporation) with various business units, Corning is growing and changing every year. We are intrinsically dynamic. Its growth and changes bring many opportunities to its employees.

The company offers career planning in which you want to be – Becoming a manger, Technical SMEs, or even working outside of your current business and moving to a brand-new portfolio to start your team.

However, grasping the right opportunities in your career will require self awareness and readiness at any time. Making sure you are prepared is not only ensure doing your responsibilities correctly, but instead, we all should think beyond ourselves, just like your supervisor. you’re your supervisor. We all know career opportunity do not just come to ourselves, we should go grasp at the right timing and do not limit ourselves by doing what is only “enough”, otherwise we will restrain our mind and career development.

"Don’t limit yourself because you are female – enjoy the equality and dare to shine yourself and in front of others"

Diversity and inclusion are intrinsic to all seven of Corning's Values, especially The Individual. So the Values are and always will be the bedrock of the foundation for our D&I work. Don’t hide because you are a female engineer/employee. Corning respect everyone as a core power in the corporate. Don’t hesitate to express your ideas in meeting, discussion, or presentation. Show your strength and vision to all, and dare to take new responsibility.

I met a lot of fantastic female engineers or leaders who show their personality and professionality. You have to believe females are as equally qualified and have the confidence to stand up and dare to shine.
