How can we close the female leadership gap?
Closing the female leadership gap is so much more than just fulfilling a quota or ticking a box. It requires deep, fully embedded change across all levels. A change that cannot be achieved overnight.
Because the gap still exists, regardless of how many steps have been taken in the right direction. Globally, women hold just 24% of senior leadership roles; patriarchy is rife in the workplace, and it’s high time we did something about it.
So, how can we close the female leadership gap? We need to take a multifaceted approach where stereotypes, pay, flexibility, celebrating success, balancing work styles and being perceptive all sit at the forefront of the work environment.
It’s a hefty task; there are mountains to climb and battles to tackle. Are you up for the challenge?
