We’ve known about the ‘Old Boys’ Club’ in financial services for decades, but now women in the wealth management have one more barrier to inclusive cultures to deal with: the Queen Bees. This is a problem because more than 91% of women who participated in our 2023 State of Women in Wealth Management survey said that firm culture is an important element to their satisfactions at work. And all of the following create barriers to inclusive firm cultures that allow women to thrive: 🐝 Queen Bees 👊 Bro Culture 👔 ‘Old Boys’ Club’ When firms develop inclusive cultures where women can thrive, they can differentiate themselves and be more welcoming and supportive of women. So how can you develop a more inclusive culture? Check out our blog post for some tips: https://bit.ly/4atkn0S

I enjoyed this blog https://lnkd.in/e2MtbFiR from colleagues at CARE (Jay Goulden Sofia Sprechmann Dawn Wadlow Emily Janoch) with such rich and iterative learning about #EquitablePartnerships and particularly how they have worked with 'positive deviants' to draw out lessons to drive further change (the two below particularly resonated for me). #PledgeForChange2030 community, let us know what you think? Get and keep women in leadership. Women made up 58% of leaders in the high performing countries, and 48% of staff, compared to global averages of 42% and 39%, respectively. Having women in leadership demonstrates that CARE is living up to on our own commitments to equality and women’s leadership, not just in our programs, but also in our organization, especially when we are partnering with Women-Led Organizations. Diversify partnerships. The most successful countries not only have more programs run with partners, they also have more kinds of partnerships—especially partnerships with governments and the private sector. For countries that got higher ratings from partners, 58% of partners were civil society organizations (CSOs). For those that scored lowest, 83% of their partnerships were CSOs. When CSO partnerships—especially “implementing” partnerships—dominate, it can be easier to fall into the grantor/grantee dynamic, rather than equal partnerships.

Women and men may go to the same workplace and they may even do the same job but their experience is not the same because workplaces do not value men and women equally. This is true for your workplace probably your home and your community. That’s why women need to be careful taking advice from men who may mean well but they are likely to be unaware of the unique challenges women encounter because workplaces are designed to devalue difference. If men really want to help they would get to know the barriers women encounter at work and take action to remove them. After all women cannot solve inequality they don’t create.

It’s well-known that the waterfront has historically been a male-dominated industry. And though progress has been made, it still leans towards a male-centric landscape, albeit to a lesser extent. The Council and its members are steadfast in our commitment to fostering an inclusive environment where everyone, including women and non-binary folks, is welcomed and encouraged to thrive. Navigating the traditionally male-dominated waters of the maritime industry poses unique challenges for women and non-binary individuals. Our members have identified the need to address this disparity, acknowledging the untapped potential within our community. Recognizing the historical gender disparity, @GCT, one of the Council’s member organizations, has created a women’s leadership group aimed at creating a supportive ecosystem. By fostering mentorship and allyship, they aim to empower and elevate women in roles traditionally held by men. Cheryl Yaremko, GCT’s Chief Financial Officer, shares that “Almost my entire career has been spent in male-dominated industries. I know what it feels like to be the only woman at the table. That’s why I’m committed to making a difference for women, minorities and others who may feel left out of the labour market.” Our members are making exciting strides in transforming our waterfront workforce, reshaping the narrative to foster an industry that truly reflects the uniqueness and strength of its diverse communities.
