New findings suggest that when women lead, profits increase. Consider this: 87% of the top 500 companies led by a female decision-maker delivered above-average profits.
Companies that commit to reducing gender bias and promoting women in the workplace tend to see increased revenue and, just as importantly, create inclusive workplace cultures that can help retain loyal women employees in the long term.
So what’s driving these metrics? It’s simple: Women introduce new perspectives to problem-solving by bringing a different lived experience to the table. In addition, there is a growing body of evidence that points to gender equality accelerating workplace innovation.
