Progress, but there is still work to be done. While 28.2% of board seats in Russell 3000 companies are now held by women, only 6% are women of color. True diversity and inclusion mean equitable representation at every level. We must advocate for marginalized groups and support initiatives empowering more voices into leadership.

We are proud to celebrate #InternationalWomensDay, a global day for celebrating women’s social, economic, cultural, and political achievements around the world, as well as recognizing our collective commitment to continuing to accelerate gender parity.  This year’s theme is “Inspire Inclusion,” which highlights the importance of inspiring others to understand and value women's inclusion, forging a more equitable and diverse world. We asked our Women's Inclusion Network (WIN) ERG leaders how they support and inspire inclusion within their sphere of influence. How do you support and #InspireInclusion? Share with us in the comments. 👇 #IWD2024 #womeninleadership #dei #equity #inclusion

This year’s theme for #InternationalWomensDay is ‘inspire inclusion’ so we’re sharing stories from some inspiring women across general practice who discuss what inclusion means to them, how they’ve inspired inclusion in the workplace and how others have made them feel included. What does inspiring inclusion mean to you?

We’ve made a commitment to growing women in leadership and alongside us on this journey Global Women and Champions for Change. Like us, they believe in Being Bold and creating workplaces where everyone can thrive. This year, we are proud to be featured in this year's Champions for Change ‘Lighting the pathway to change’ Diversity Equity and Inclusion Impact report. In this video from the report, learn more about our story of growing women in leadership starting at our grassroots and hear from our CEO Ross Taylor and women leaders on why we think an inclusive culture; greater ethnicity within our leadership groups, and greater gender balance across all our roles is important. #womeninbusiness #women #championsforchange #teamfb #bebold #buildingbettertogether #womeninleadership #equality 

Ruth Bader Ginsburg once said, "Women belong in all places where decisions are being made." These words resonate deeply with me. Today, I invite you to reflect on the impact you can make in advocating for women in leadership positions. How many women have you supported for CEO roles, board positions, or access to capital? Edie Fraser's recent article encourages us to double our efforts and amplify our support for gender equality and diversity. Embracing diversity in leadership not only fosters a more just and inclusive society but also brings tangible benefits to businesses and the economy as a whole. We cannot drive change alone; it requires collective action and collaboration. By setting clear goals, supporting and celebrating one another, we can make a profound difference. #GenderEquality #DiversityMatters #InclusiveLeadership

According to McKinsey's workplace report, women remain underrepresented at all levels of the corporate pipeline, and despite slow progress since 2015, ascension to leadership roles has actually dropped 2% in the past year.

Uniting women leaders and rising talent from across the retail ecosystem to champion gender equality and propel more women executives with: - Curated 1-2-1 women only meetings - Exclusive women-only roundtable discussions - Industry Mentorship Last year we had 325 women on our global stages, and Shoptalk Fall's current speaker lineup is 65% women leaders.

The National Women's History Alliance designates a yearly theme for Women's History Month.

March is the month that we celebrate the achievements and accomplishments of women, and the significant personal and societal roles they have played through Women’s history month. As women it is important that we continue to fight for equity, diversity, and inclusion.If we want a positive future for ourselves, our daughters, sisters and so on, we need to eliminate bias and discrimination entirely from our lives, workplaces, and institutions. It takes courage to speak up and advocate. I celebrate those women who after decades of discrimination, work for basic inclusion, equality and fairness. Gender diversity is about more than just the presence of women in the industry or in leadership roles. Diversity also requires an industry and corporate culture of acceptance and collaboration. The median age of realtors is 60 with 62% of those realtors being females, but women are still less represented in executive roles. I am proud to be amongst the many women in my field to have achieved a level of leadership and ownership as the Managing Partner for The Agency Seattle, and to be aligned with a company with a strong female workforce (71%) but as a real estate industry we still have the need for more women in leadership roles. I am committed to doing my part to help clear the path forward. Drop me a comment 👇 I’d love to hear from you!
