Mastering Resilience: How to embrace complexity and thrive in uncertain times
In the past year, women leaders have switched jobs at the highest rates we've ever seen - and at higher rates than men in leadership. Women are still dramatically underrepresented in leadership: only 1 in 4 C-suite executives is a women, and only 1 In 20 is a women of color. Research shows that companies with three or more women serving on corporate boards performed significantly better financially than companies with few or no women on their boards. Dr. Martineau will share what’s behind these and other trends in the workplace.
