From the CEO’s Perspective Series: Women & Leadership

The evidence is clear, inclusive leaders and inclusive organizations outperform those that are not. According to a Catalyst report, firms with more women on their boards outperform their rivals with a 42% higher return on sales, 66% higher return on invested capital and 53% higher return on equity. 

Leaders send a powerful message when they demonstrate a commitment to inclusion. Yet we know women remain underrepresented in all ranks of management, especially in the C-suite.

Join us for a conversation with three of Seattles most influential CEOs to hear how inclusion has translated to impact. Hear how aspiring female leaders influence the power of male counter-parts to be more effective champions for increasing the number of women in leadership roles, the c-suite and on corporate boards.
