While the trend line is positive, this year’s Rosenzweig Report shows how much more needs to be done. As half the population is female, their under-representation in corporate leadership means Canada’s business elite is missing some of its best potential talent. 

I applaud the progress made to date, but this year’s Rosenzweig Report shows just how far we still need to go. And not just to gain access to the C-suite, but to those basic needs that insure survival. 

The Rosenzweig Report is a useful report card proving that Canadian companies are not doing enough to promote women into the highest levels of corporate leadership.

We must ensure that the struggle for gender equality is a priority on the national and international agenda.

The Rosenzweig Report plays a critical role in showing a realistic profile of where we stand today, and, in exposing Canadian businesses to the clear benefits of bringing women into the C-suite and onto corporate boards.
