After an inspiring morning at our annual Leadership Breakfast we are thrilled to publish our ✨Women in Leadership 2024 report✨. For over 20 years, The Forum of Executive Women has published the Women in Leadership report. This is the only report of its kind specific to our region and brings transparency to how public companies in Philadelphia support the advancement of women as leaders. We are grateful to have worked alongside PwC on this important project for the past twelve years. 📣 Please share this report at work and with your community! This year, our report is future focused and provides insights on how we can create meaningful change toward leadership parity.

We are delighted to share this news from founder of The Forum Judith M. von Seldeneck. Happy birthday Diversified Search Group, thank you for being a valued sponsor of The Forum and supporting women leaders for generations.
Diversified Search Group just hit the big 5-0 this October! When I started this little venture back in 1974, I never dreamed we'd be where we are today. One of the top 10 executive search firms in the country, and still going strong. For five decades, we've been shaking things up. Placing talented executives in leadership roles when others wouldn't. Challenging the status quo. Being deliberately different. I’d like to think that we helped widen the aperture in our industry - bringing new people with different perspectives, backgrounds and skills into the executive ranks. Making a difference is what we’ll be celebrating this year. Thanks to our incredible team, our trusting clients, the leaders we've placed who've gone on to do amazing things, have made all the difference for us. We've weathered recessions, navigated digital revolutions, and now we're tackling a post-pandemic world. Through it all, we've stayed true to our core belief: that more inclusive leadership makes for better business. So with gratitude to everyone who’s been on this journey with us: thank you! Here's to 50 years of making a difference. And, we're just getting started. The best is yet to come.
