  • For the past 18 years, the Rosenzweig Report has scrutinized how and whether women are progressing in business. With this edition of the Rosenzweig report, we salute the courageous resistance of Iranian women, their creative use of artful forms of communication, their appeal to our common humanity to advance gender justice.

  • Winning companies are fueled by strong and healthy diversity of thought, which is heavily dependent on the diversity of people they hire. Measuring and monitoring the success of companies and the correlation with their diversity statistics is an important driver of awareness, which we thank Jay Rosenzweig for championing.

  • Progress starts when we have the courage to not only speak up about inequities but we also act to change what we know to be unjust. Jay Rosenzweig, who we so value as an advisor here at Community, takes action through The Rosenzweig Report. He has created a space that shines a spotlight on the inexplicable lagging numbers of women business leaders and the inequities that perpetuate the real challenges women experience in the workplace. Thanks in large part to the Rosenzweig Report, there is no denying that now is the time for us to do better.

  • The annual Rosenzweig Report shines a light on the existing gaps and educates business leaders, politicians, and society at large on the need to strive for greater gender equality. We know women face barriers when trying to grow or start a business, and Jay’s Report reminds us that we must keep pushing for change.
    — Marci Ien, Canadian Minister for Women and Gender Equality and Youth
  • The Rosenzweig Report sheds both a hopeful light on the trajectory of gender equality in the corporate world, while also reminding us that there is still much more work to be done. We all have a responsibility to roll our sleeves up to pave the way toward a future where gender equality in the workplace is the norm.
