Transcribed Dialogue:
'Invest in Yourself', was the closing dialogue of Season 1 at The Winning Side podcast. I hope you got a chance to reflect on that one. Well I personally take our dialogues way too seriously and took this time to self invest.
Hello & welcome to the Winning Side suite Season 2 this is your very own host & producer Sara Hasan. Absolutely delighted to be back to voice what matters. To those who are new here let me take a moment to introduce myself. I'm Sara, banker by profession, entrepreneur at heart and passionate about accessibility, equality, diversity and inclusion.
In 2019 I was elected as Women's Officer at University of Cambridge, Graduate Union. It was at the end of my tenure, in 2021, that I realized the need for having a sustainable platform to voice key D&I (Diversity & Inclusion) concerns. Hence came 'The Winning Side'.
I would like to take a moment to thank the University of Cambridge for sponsoring our first dialogue, LIVE event titled 'Women in the Boardroom'. From there on there was no looking back. We got a lot of support from Judge Business School and immense support from the industry. Some of the dialogues were sponsored by key players such as Crowdfunder UK. It is this kind of support for inclusive dialogues that's really needed in this day an age.
Today as we are returning to office and going back to normal, I would like to take a step back and reflect on key take-aways from last year and a half. I hope you will join me in this journey along with our wonderful guests.
We are in progress in terms of recording dialogues and podcast production. Please do share if there is a specific topic or guest you would like to see featured or sponsored at The Winning Side.
Please do support our creative team by subscribing to our social media links across Linkedin, Instagram and Youtube. There is ongoing conversation happening about the topics discussed on the podcast and that is where the real inclusive conversation happens.
Lets continue this wonderful inclusive journey.

This organic halt, signified by the year 2020, was one of a kind. Embedded in it, was a unique opportunity, an opportunity to celebrate what really matters and to rethink what really is ‘The Winning Side’, The all inclusive winning side.
Who would have thought that the ever increasing pace of life would get a market correction in this extreme form.
The year started with a bang, with a classic countdown across the globe. Each country proudly displaying its fireworks. Global audience taking the liberty of joining in with the excitement of starting a new year, new resolutions and new targets.
Global leaders came together at Davos, for the World Economic Forum, identified key theme as ‘Stakeholders for a Cohesive and Sustainable World’. These very stakeholders were organically redefined across the course of the year.
In other news, there was an ambitious cohort at University of Cambridge, pursuing Executive Masters in Business Administration (EMBA). They indulged in the ever so popular EMBA’s traditional Red-Blue game. The game was based on the concept of prisoners dilemma, a decision paradox in game theory. In simple terms it offers four decision outcomes and two decision strategies to two parties. The two parties can not communicate but there individual decisions will have a ripple effect. It reflects how rational decision makers may not cooperate even if the outcome leads to a mutual win-win. This is a dilemma that we witnessed LIVE. It magnified over the course of the year, amidst identity politics, Brexit, lockdowns, quarantine measures and Black Lives Movement.
Needless to say the year 2020, is our calling for reflection, rebuilding and reshuffling our priorities.
2020 Highlights and Thank You Note
This year The Winning Side re-started (we say re-started, as that is a story to be shared at another time) journey from a LIVE dialogue on Women in the Boardroom at University of Cambridge Library, followed by dialogue on role of diversity & inclusion in leadership at Judge Business school and from there on there was no stopping us. We spread our virtual wings globally.
We welcomed diverse perspectives, explored winning mantras and got inspired by our esteemed guests from the French Rivera, Springfield (US), California (US), Iran, Netherlands, Pakistan, Brazil, Nigeria, China, New York (US), Lebanon, Scotland and London (UK).
Here's what this wonderful journey lead to:

Generously backed by sponsors twice, University of Cambridge Library and Crowdfunder Uk.
