About us
50/50 Women on Boards™ is the leading nonprofit global education & advocacy campaign committed to advancing gender balance and diversity on corporate boards. In 2010 we launched 2020 Women on Boards, now 50/50 Women on Boards, to educate, advocate and collaborate with corporations and action groups committed to advancing women to corporate boards. Reaching and exceeding our initial goal of 20% women directors by 2020, our new campaign boldly calls for women to hold 50% of all corporate board seats and women of color to hold at least 20% of corporate board seats. Our proprietary 50/50 Women on Boards Gender Diversity Index™ transparently tracks women's progress on Russell 3000 Index company boards. Quarterly and annually, we analyze the data and disseminate insights to encourage meaningful change across all levels of leadership. If you are a woman aspiring to serve on a board or board-ready, we offer interactive workshops with experienced corporate directors to give you the tools to pursue a corporate board seat. We invite all to participate in our public awareness campaigns and tentpole events, including our Global Conversation on Board Diversity™. If you are a corporation searching for ways to elevate your DE&I efforts for your employees, clients, or key stakeholders, we encourage you to get involved by partnering with our campaign or hosting a corporate board program for women in your network. More than 80% of our revenue funds our research, educational programs, and public awareness campaigns. Get involved: www.5050wob.com Have questions? Email: info@5050wob.com

On a Mission to Elevate Women’s Greatness | CEO @ 50/50 Women on Boards | Nonprofit Board Director | Let's Go!!
Yesterday, 50/50 Women on Boards and I had the privilege of speaking at Google’s Women@PLV Boardroom Bound event, focusing on Preparing Women for Board Leadership. It was incredible to engage with talented and ambitious women, discussing the crucial importance of diversity in the boardroom and how they can leverage their expertise for board service. A big thank you to Christie Dang for hosting such a impactful event, to the producers, and to all participants who contributed their energy, questions, and insights to the conversation. If you were part of the discussion, whether in person or virtually, I'd love to hear from you! My only regret is we forgot to take a group photo because we were fully engrossed in the moment! 🤩 #BoardDiversity #WomenInLeadership #BoardroomBound #WomenAtGoogle #DiversityAndInclusion
