Listen up! The data is clear: Numerous studies show a connection between gender diversity in leadership and improved business performance. 📢According to McKinsey, companies with more gender diversity on their executive teams are 25% more likely to achieve above-average profitability. 💸S&P Global found that firms led by women CEOs or CFOs outperform the market on stock price. 👭Women in leadership bring an increased focus on collaboration and a more balanced approach to risk, which drives sustainable innovation. Promoting qualified women into leadership roles isn’t just about fairness or compliance—it’s about creating the conditions for better business outcomes. If you're a company or industry leader, what are you waiting for?! It's time you invest in the careers of women in your organization. Reach out for more info cynthia@zealoftheheel.com

Loving this recommendation from Tanya, who recently attended a Now, Near, Next keynote with her professional association: "I'm digging into the Now, Near, Next Blueprint and loving it! I'm taking a few moments each day to sit down, think about my path and what that means for my future. Highly recommend the book: Now, Near, Next- A Practical Guide for Mid-Career Women to Move from Professional Serendipity to Intentional Advancement" - Tanya
