How can we accelerate women’s empowerment in the workplace, particularly in addressing the persistent gender pay gap and promoting female leadership? On the occasion of International Women’s Day, Anna Kanze Hamilton, Social Impact Community Builder Fellow at Goodie Nation, emphasizes the importance of equal pay for equal work and more women in leadership roles as crucial steps toward empowering women.
She highlights the gender pay gap, noting that women earn 24% less than men globally and represent only a quarter of CEOs and managing directors worldwide. Furthermore, she underscores the benefits of more women in leadership roles for enhancing the overall workplace.
