Promoting Women’s Participation in the Workforce

A discussion with Minister Mori of the Cabinet Office and others about how to promote women’s participation in the workforce.
“Wait, was that the kind of meeting where a minister was present?” I hadn’t realized, so
I absentmindedly showed up as usual—wearing overly colorful casual clothes in red, blue, yellow, and green, with geta sandals and no makeup—and I felt truly sorry about it.
Aaaah, I messed up…
I saw it mentioned in an email later, so I’ll be reflecting on this all day today…
The discussion itself was very meaningful.
