How Women are Redesigning the Rules of Leadership

The statistics show both progress and challenges for women in leadership. Women now hold roughly 30% of executive roles globally. While women make up 47% of the entry-level workforce, only 25% advance to senior management positions. Despite pipeline barriers, pay gaps, and promotion rates, women continue to redesign the rules of leadership. During this seminar, we will discuss (1) how women change the conversation, (2) rewrite traditional norms, (3) reset the mindsets, and (4) compare with the ongoing AI revolution in terms of innovation, employee satisfaction, and financial performance. You will be encouraged to consider the impact of benefit and loss over the past fifty years as a result of these changes and forecast future consequences as women continue to offer leadership to the next generation.
