    Getting More Women Into Senior Leadership: The First 3 Years At Work Are Vital

    On this episode of Raise Your Game, we're tackling a topic of critical importance in the business world: the underrepresentation of women in leadership roles. Tack TMI helped their parent company Gi Group develop a programme to support their women in leadership initiative. In the case study that was published recently, it was noted that only one woman in four is a C-suite leader. With respect to this programme in particular, the Gi Group's workforce was predominantly female, yet less than 20% of its strategic committee was female. We'll explore the variety of reasons behind this imbalance, identify the barriers that women often face on their journey up the career ladder, discuss strategies to overcome these challenges, and explore the tangible business outcomes of a more gender-diverse leadership team. Joining us for this is Jim O'Brien, the CEO of Learning & Development firm Tack TMI. Image Credit: Shutterstock See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
