McKinsey’s Report: Diversity Matters: Why we are not making any progress with our women?

In Europe, only 8% of companies do women account for more than a quarter of senior-management jobs.

Since 2007, McKinsey’s Women Matter research has explored the role women play in the global workplace, their experiences and impact in senior-executive roles, and the performance benefits that companies gain from gender diversity. In this video, McKinsey partners Joanna Barsh, Sandrine Devillard, Emily Lawson, and Jin Wang recount the progress women have made in reaching the executive suite.
