This is a pivotal moment for women’s leadership in the U.S. and around the world. Research continues to show advancing women’s careers requires sustained focus. Companies that remain committed will retain top talent and, ultimately, perform better. The Rosenzweig Report provides a clear, data-driven view of where…

Women’s leadership is one of the most powerful forces for progress in the world. When women lead, communities and companies become stronger, innovation flourishes, and the path forward becomes more equitable for everyone. At TIME, our journalism consistently highlights how women across business, culture, science, and…

I’ve made it one of my missions to discuss the crisis facing our young men. What’s not mutually exclusive is discussing how we can better empower our young women. When we systematically equip our future leaders, it lifts up everyone — regardless of gender. The Rosenzweig Report is a great way for us to track how much progress women have…

Women make organizations stronger, smarter, and more resilient. When women lead, everyone wins. We need to make sure women have the same access to opportunities, capital, mentorship, and leadership roles as anyone else. Jay Rosenzweig has been pushing for this for more than two decades with his annual report, and…

When we talk about advancing women into leadership, we’re talking about something fundamental to who we are as a society. It’s about equality, yes, but it’s also about building a stronger economy and driving growth in a changing world. We’ve made real progress. But we also have to be honest with ourselves: women are still …

The Rosenzweig Report continues to play an important role in keeping the conversation about women in leadership grounded in data and focused on progress. While we have seen meaningful gains over time, progress at the very top, and particularly in key operational roles, continues to lag.

Women are reshaping the future of aviation. At Pearson, I am proud to lead a team where nearly half of my Executive Team are women, driving decisions at the very center of our ambitious strategy. Across the airport, women command our operations centre, lead emergency response teams, and…

Opportunity is not a women’s issue. It is a leadership and economic imperative. The organizations that grow, scale, and innovate are the ones that reflect the world as it truly is — diverse in experience and grounded in purpose. When leadership mirrors the society it serves, performance improves, cultures strengthen, and innovation accelerates.

As Canadian business leaders face more challenges, disruptions, and transformation in this new world, they will need more diverse ideas, innovation, and creativity to improve performance in their companies. Women offer a different lens and perspective that can accelerate the unleashing of these new ideas, innovation and creativity.

Anyone who's serious about their work and the responsibility and accountability that accompany real leadership knows that some of the best leaders are women. Some are men, too, but in a world still struggling to free itself of unevidenced biases that assume women’s lack of competence, any serious and…

The Rosenzweig Report has long shown that strong leadership drives meaningful outcomes. Today, that insight matters more than ever. As AI, cybersecurity, and quantum technologies redefine global risk, excluding women from leadership creates strategic blind spots and…

Women’s leadership is essential to building institutions that are equitable, innovative, and resilient. My own path in science began when I first encountered researchers in the field and realized that a life in science was possible for me—a reminder of how profoundly representation shapes opportunity. As the first woman to lead the…

Iranian women have operated for the past half century in one of the most constrained environments in the world. Here is the paradox: women represent roughly 60% of university graduates, yet structural barriers has limited advancement into senior roles.

The promotion and protection of gender equality is one of the most effective ways to reduce poverty, combat discrimination, and build a more inclusive, peaceful, and prosperous world. Without the full participation, protection, and empowerment of women and girls, lasting peace, security, and economic stability will remain out of reach.

Too often, conversations about women and girls’ rights reduce people to what was done to them. But survivors are not tragedies. We are leaders, builders and protectors of our communities. I have lived the reality of child marriage and female genital mutilation and I have lived with what comes after: choosing dignity, agency and…

In an increasingly complex world, organisational perfomance depends on the quality of leadership and access to the best talent. At 100 Women @ Davos, we have seen how women in decision-making roles deliver more inclusive outcomes while strengthening performance through broader strategic judgement.

Women’s leadership is not only about representation. It is about moral clarity, accountability, and the protection of human dignity. Across the world, gender-based violence, exclusion, and systemic inequality remain persistent realities. When women are present at decision-making tables, institutions are better equipped to…

I was born in Iran, a country where women’s rights are heavily suppressed, sometimes quietly through systems and laws, and sometimes violently through force. As a woman and a singer, my voice was restricted: female singers are not allowed to sing, record, or perform publicly. I was arrested multiple times and…

Leadership, at its core, is about seeing the humanity in others, noticing what is often invisible, and recognizing possibility where others see limits. In my work documenting vulnerable communities around the world, I have witnessed extraordinary strength, resilience, and dignity, especially among women and girls whose…

Women are born with a strength the world cannot give and no one can take away. Leadership is not about proving you have it. It is about helping women recognize what is already there, trust it, and step into it with confidence.
