Rosenzweig sees a huge opportunity to close the gender gap in the C-suite and organizations have a significant role to play here.

It is fortunate that we have the Rosenzweig Report on Women in Leadership Roles in Corporate Canada. It sets the record straight that corporations need to be much more aggressive in promoting women to top positions. 

The Rosenzweig Report shows an urgency for both the private and public sectors to address this alarming and persistent imbalance with every tool available.

I am hopeful that research like the Rosenzweig report will continue to inspire and push companies to realize they need to do more and that diversity brings measurable benefits to shareholders.

The Rosenzweig Report shows that Canada lags when it comes to gender diversity in corporate leadership and this comes at a cost to the competitiveness of our economy.

While the Rosenzweig Report shows there’s more work to do, I’m confident that with such strong talent across many industries, we’ll continue to see more women excel in executive roles.

The Rosenzweig Report shows the number of female directors in Canada now exceeds 20 percent so I’m confident the number of women in the executive ranks will begin to increase at a faster pace as the pipeline continues to develop and companies continue to focus on the value of diversity.

I am encouraged by the leadership we have seen in Canada coming from men like Prime Minister Trudeau and Jay Rosenzweig, who bring the issue of gender equality to the forefront.

We all know the old saying that what gets measured, get’s done. Let’s hope the Rosenzweig Report keeps moving the yardsticks.

The Rosenzweig Report provides important analysis about the accomplishments women continue to make as business, non-profit and public-sector leaders.

The Rosenzweig Report shows a generational change is underway as female executives are increasingly taking their place in the ranks of corporate management.
