How we perceive our worth does not only impact our personal lives but also affects us on the professional front. This is especially critical for women living in a majorly patriarchal society. The patriarchial social system wherein men hold prominent positions creates such external structures and imbibes internalized beliefs that women look down upon themselves, impacting their ability to grow in a professional setup.
When women recognize their abilities and worth in a workplace, they feel confident in pursuing opportunities that can prove instrumental in taking their careers ahead.
A positive self-perception and self-esteem empower women to take on leadership roles and speak up when there is injustice or any hindrance in their professional development.
Here are four ways how positive self-perception and self-esteem can help with career development and professional growth.
1. Women with high self-esteem are not afraid to take risks and pursue careers otherwise considered ambitious or dominated by the male population.
2. They feel confident in negotiating salaries, promotions, and better working conditions.
3. They know their hard work deserves recognition and awards and they are afraid to ask for it.
4. They do not fear failure or scrutiny and their self-perception and self-esteem empower them to take up leadership roles and excel in them.

Engagement: Interactive and multimedia tools can enhance engagement and motivation, making learning more enjoyable and effective.
Personalization: Adaptive learning technologies tailor educational experiences to individual learning styles and paces, improving comprehension and retention.
Skill Development: Exposure to technology builds digital literacy and technical skills, which are increasingly crucial in the modern workforce.
