June 6th Webinar: Building Inclusive Workplaces that Leverage the Strength of Women's Untapped TalentUpcoming: June 6th at 2 pm ET Women lag substantially behind men when it comes to their representation in leadership positions—with women of color being most excluded. In some fields, women account for only 9% of all management positions, despite holding almost 52% of all professional-level jobs in the US. Herforce, a new program from Workforce Solutions Borderplex, is working to change this. Herforce is designed to help close this leadership gap and tap into the immense potential of women in the workforce. In this workshop, we will discuss the systemic barriers that women face in reaching leadership positions and the steps we’re taking to help women overcome them:
Amid a workforce crisis, women are an untapped market with a wealth of potential to bolster the workforce and ensure its long-term health. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of what’s needed to address inequity and empower women to advance their careers and unlock their potential—and the potential of the entire workforce. more info... |
