Progress reported today in the Davies Report makes good and encouraging reading. There is no doubt that business has embraced the issue and is getting on with it. As highlighted though, there is more to be done in getting women to the Exec level and retaining them earlier in their careers to maintain a strong pipeline.
Many of our clients are focused on this with a range of initiatives at play.
There is no quick fix, but we are optimistic that, over time, and particularly as Boards see the positive results of a more diverse senior teams, we will see greater balance in the Executive cadre. Having more women Non Executives is a great start….
