Dian Sastrowardoyo Bangga Pakai Batik

Fimela.com, Jakarta Memegang gelar S2 dari Fakultas Ekonomi Universitas Indonesia, tak heran jika Dian Sastrowardoyo didapuk menjadi salah satu panelis di Women In Leadership In The UK & Indonesia. Ia disandingkan dengan Ibu Susi Pudjiastuti dan Anna Soubry, UK Minister for Small Business.

Di acara yang dibuka oleh PM David Cameron tersebut, Dian memilih untuk mengenakan batik. Seperti apa penampilan Dian dibalut warisan budaya Indonesia tersebut?

Exchanging thoughts with the VVIP of Indonesian and United Kingdom Government. And I am a huge fan of these strong ladies.. They have inspire me to break all odds and proof that we can be the best at what we do. We can have the job not simply because we are women, but because we are the best person to do the job. Glass ceiling? What glass ceiling? #SusiPudjiastuti #AnnaSoubry #DianSastrowardoyo at @britcham_id

When i worked as a consultant, I remember coming to any client’s office for the first few times would be challenging, because a lot of convincing need to be done. It was not uncommon that some people from the client side ask me to take pictures or a selfie with me instead of taking me seriously. Most of the time I felt my presence was ‘ornamental’. Being somebody that was already well known in the entertainment business is not without its issues. People tend to associate entertainers as inadequate, incompetent, or lazy. It’s as if those who choose to work in a creative industry had lost the competition academically in the very beginning that they have no choice but to work in the creative industry. At least that was the unspoken-stigma they had for people who works in the entertainment world. In order to gain ‘par’ credibility to my fellow young consultants, I need to work twice as hard to be convincing. It was not okay to be good, I need to be great. It was not okay to be convincing, I need to dazzle the clients. However, competing with other consultants in HayGroup as a Philosophy degree holder has limit me to specialize mainly in non-numerical tools such as assessments, competency coding, job design, and work load analysis. I realize that in order to be able to master the complete knowledge of the financial performance in business, I need to acquire more formal knowledge. Then, when I was pregnant with my second child, I pursued a master degree in financial management in the same University that I went-Universitas Indonesia-and got a cum laude. I was breaking all myths (at least to myself) about being a humanities degree holder would hinder you to acquire a more number crunching-technical knowledge. I learn that NOTHING is impossible-as long is one is ready to work hard. I read the accounting and the Investment Management text books like a novel. I took matters into my own hands, and tried to comprehend those unfamiliar business concepts-by my self. @britcham_id #DianSastrowardoyo #speech

It was such a rare opportunity to see the United Kingdom Prime Minister himself in person #DavidCameron he was very lively in his opening speech. He said: UK is open for business, and for Indonesia, the doors are opened widely. UK is ready to help Indonesia's development in the upcoming years, ready to lend expertise and technology, and even ready to welcome More Indonesian students to study in the UK, work there to gain expert knowledge, so they can bring back the knowledge and expertise to help build Indonesia.

To be able to study abroad in a profound academic environment is still my life long dream until this day. But until that opportunity comes, I am helping to make the academic dream of some girls come true. This year I’m starting a pool of fund from a percentage of my own personal income to finance a higher education for particularly girls from a low economic background. I worked with Hoshizora foundation to carefully select 5 to 10 academically accomplished girls from Bantul and Gunung Kidul, Yogyakarta. It’s really moving to interview them each one by one and felt the genuine passion to learn and to elevate their economic status by being educated. There is this one girl Rohimah- a daughter of angkringan–nasi kucing seller in Bantul-who dream about being a doctor. I pledged my self in helping making these girls’ dream come true, and imagining how many other lives that they would be able change after they are spawn into newly financially independent beings. I named this fund “Beasiswa Dian Sastrowardoyo” or Dian Sastrowardoyo Scholarship and plan to continue funding young girls to higher education in the hope to change their economic background. Why girls? Because I agree with Queen Rania of Jordan’s quote: that ‘to educate women, is to educate the future’. Indonesia now is facing the utmost challenge to make it self ready to compete for the global economy. Indonesia lacks high skilled worker, and infrastructure. We are walking when we are supposed to be running in terms of ‘upgrading’ our human resource competencies. Future Indonesians are facing heavier challenges compared to what we are facing right now. I believe in order to invest effectively to the human resources in a nation, is through its young girls.., future mothers. I know that smart mothers will breed smart children. Dedicated and driven mothers will breed even more dedicated and even more driven children. I personally believe that education is the answer to poverty. And by empowering the women we are investing in our future. #britcham
