How do you know if your organisation has true gender equality? Reflect on the following.
Is gender diversity:
Prioritised? (organisation clearly promotes gender equality)
Operationalised? (organisation recruits and hires for gender diversity)
Modelled? (leaders, culture, systems support gender diversity)
Measured? (metrics are collected to track progress)
Rewarded? (equality is tied to business metrics)
If not, there’s work to do!
There are many areas in the life of an organisation where a positive culture can be encouraged. Here are four:
Leadership
Coaching and mentoring
Building alliances
Persuasion
