Senior Executives Doubt Value of Gender Diversity

“While 71 percent of top #executives believe #gender #diversity in the boardroom … always a good thing,  nearly a third (29 percent) of all senior executives doubt its value altogether“.

In the category of ” They Just Don’t Get It”….

its surprising and and disappointing to see that in the Western world, many fail to see why #gender diversity is a good thing, not just for #women but for organisations themselves and society at large.

Why would you want to reduce your talent pool by 50%?

By by not subscribing to gender diversity you are denying yourself access to half of the available workforce, not to mention the diversity of thinking and styles provided by people with a different mindset.

Words fail me.
