From a financial resources perspective, women remain relatively disadvantaged. The latest Global Gender Gap Report from the World Economic Forum finds an “economic participation and opportunity gap” of 41.9 percent between men and women globally. Even in developed economies where women are relatively well represented in the workforce, they continue to receive only around 80 cents for every dollar a man earns – and when they are women of colour, even less.
Men are promoted based on potential, women on performance. As well, as securring funding.
So, what we can we do to actively close the gap?

If you want to attract and retain top employees, you need to make sure you pay them competitive salaries. At the same time, you don’t want to lose money by setting unreasonably high salaries. To find a good balance we used to have salary houses, but are they still relevant in todays world?

Being a board member today is a very different role from being a senior executive and brings with it added complexity and unique responsibilities which are different from other management and operational roles. To successfully carry out a board mandate, directors must have a general overview of a company’s operational activities and corporate governance, including an understanding of its exposure to risk and strategic direction.
Board members continually face new challenges like diversity, sustainability and digital advancements. Dynamic and immersive learning allows you to understand the essential areas of the board – such as, architecture, structure, processes and the job market – thereby progressing into a board position with confidence.

Strategic risk management is a crucial but often overlooked aspect of enterprise risk management (ERM). While ERM has traditionally focused on financial and, more recently, operational risk, the fact is that strategic risk is far more consequential.
Studies of the largest public companies indicate that strategic risks account for approximately 60 percent of major declines in market capitalization. Operational risks have just half that impact (about 30 percent), and financial risks generate about 10 percent.
