CEOs for Gender Equity roundtable

Our CEO Jenness Gardner recently hosted a CEO Roundtable in support of CEOs for Gender Equity, which was a great morning of lively and thought-provoking discussion. 

With a strong focus on practical solutions, leaders walked away with clear steps to drive meaningful change, including

  • Redesign jobs to remove gender barriers. Long, inflexible hours exclude women and harm men too.
  • Refuse meetings that lack gender diversity. Representation matters at every decision-making table.
  • Have proactive conversations about flexibility. It should be standard, not an exception.
  • Review job descriptions when employees move to part-time and adjust responsibilities rather than expecting the same output in fewer hours.
  • Role model flexible working and work-life balance as leaders. Change starts at the top.
