Develop a Robust Female Leadership Pipeline

By Alexia Vernon


female-leadership-pipeline-1While there is ample evidence that companies across industries and sectors do better when there are women in senior leadership positions, unfortunately in Europe, and even in the United States, the lack of female corporate leaders is staggering. Only 3% of the largest publicly listed companies in the EU have a female CEO, and only 7% have a female chairperson of the board. Across the Atlantic, in the US, women hold less than 5% of Fortune 500 CEO roles and comprise only 19% of board seats.

When discussing this lack of representation, the questions that often emerge are, not very surprisingly, Why are there not more women in senior leadership roles? As well as, How do we create more corporate female leaders?
