I was recently on the #WorkTrends podcast, talking to Meghan M. Biro about diversity in hiring. Why does hiring a diverse team matter? How can you a build a stronger, more diverse pipeline? Listen in!

It’s clear - having more women at all levels of an organization leads to better outcomes. And just how many women is enough? My conclusion after a great deal of research is that companies should aim for a minimum of 20% women, with a targeted 50/50 split at all levels in an organization for true balance.

Does it really matter if women are in the workplace?

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been asked this question. And my answer is always the same - an emphatic YES.
