Women leadership is transforming the way societies and economies perform. Ensuring women have a seat at the decision-making table, not only honors justice and fundamental rights but also drives measurable positive outcomes. Apart from horning their skills to effectively lead the C-suite roles in global giants, female empowerment in business and politics is the key to economic progress and societal well-being.
According to the UN Women, Europe and North America (31.4%) and Latin America and the Caribbean (30.4%) are factual proofs of how gender-inclusive and decision-making correlates with reduced corruption, strong economies, and greater investment in children for future generations.
However, women continue to be underrepresented in top state roles and disparities persists across sectors, allowing women to occupy leadership in only 25 countries globally. Europe emerges as a leader in gender-inclusive governance, with 12 countries being headed by women.
This September, women leaders in Europe represented their bold leadership visions into scalable business results. Global Women Leader presents these accounts, emphasizing the transformative and long-term effect of their leadership.
