Progress is happening, but at a snail’s pace.
Did you know only 23.3% women hold global board seats.
Progress is happening, but at a snail’s pace.
At the current rate, we won’t reach parity until 2038.
There’s a concerning lack of women in chair and CEO roles, even in countries with quotas.
It’s clear we need to rethink our approach.
So, what can we do?
1. Rethink recruitment: Focus on skills, not just traditional experience.
2. Get creative: Build governance experience for women through non-traditional paths.
3. Track progress: Regularly measure diversity in boards and C-suites.
It’s clear we need a multi-pronged approach.
Collaboration between all stakeholders is crucial to accelerate progress.
As leaders, we must ask ourselves:
Are we doing enough to shatter this glass ceiling?
How can we champion diversity in our own organizations?
Let’s start a conversation.
