Marching Towards Workplace Equity for Women
March 24, 2022 • 12pm ET
This Women’s History Month, we’re sharing best practices on how to advocate for yourself, empower women in the workplace, and be better allies for professional women.
Did you know, women are still paid just $0.82 for every $1.00 a man makes? And although women make up 39% of the workforce, they account for only 11% of executives across 1,100 global companies. Statistics are even worse for women of color, women who are part of the LGBTQ+ community, and women with disabilities. So, what can we do to change that?
Join us as we discuss:
- How bias, pay disparities, exclusion, and harassment continue to be a challenge for women in the workplace
- How inequities expand when considering intersectionality of race, disability, sexual orientation, and other aspects of identity
- How we can take action to mitigate barriers, ensure inclusion, and make progress toward the goal of an equitable professional experience
