Organizations need to pull several levers at the individual, cultural and organizational levels to make meaningful change. Women need to believe that leadership is a possible career path for them and engage in deliberate ongoing planning. Leaders need to actively champion female talent and create opportunities for women to grow and advance. Organizations must continue to support women in their development, offer meaningful formal practices and hold leaders accountable for creating an inclusive environment. When these initiatives are implemented effectively, movement will occur.
New Research Shows Boards of Directors Too Passive in Developing CEO Successors
Study by Stanford, The Institute of Executive Development, and The Conference Board reveals a critical stumbling block in the succession process
March 12, 2014, STANFORD, Calif. — Internal candidates are the most likely to succeed a CEO, but new research reveals a critical stumbling block in the succession process: how well boards of directors know senior executives one level below the CEO and a lack of board involvement in talent development.
In this report we detail the results of our survey of more than 150 corporate directors of public companies in North America. The study results appear in the latest edition of Director Notes published by The Conference Board. Additional analysis of survey data and statistics regarding CEO turnover events at S&P 500 companies will be included in the 2014 edition of The Conference Board’s CEO Succession Practices, slated for release in early April.
It’s no secret that women have historically faced greater barriers than men when it comes to fully participating in the economy. Across geographies and income levels, disparities between men and women persist in the form of pay gaps, uneven opportunities for advancement, and unbalanced representation in important decision-making.

Why Attracting and Retaining Diverse Talent is a Strategic PriorityCenterfor HCI
To tackle longstanding workplace discrimination, many future-focused organizations are adding diversity officers to their leadership teams. If organizations want the best talent, they need to address any issues that are keeping diverse talent out of their ranks and out of their boardrooms.
Why top management eludes women in Latin America: McKinsey Global Survey results
Executives in the region say gender diversity has moved up on their companies’ agendas, but they still report few women at the top. Women and men disagree on the reasons why.
Effectively coaching and developing High Potentials starts with informed selection. New research from MRG reveals that HiPos share a select group of core competencies that are consistent across the board. However, when segmented, the data also reveal surprising diversity within the HiPo population. When we examine the data by region, industry, and other demographics, we find that unique profiles develop within these segments – some that vary significantly from the overall HiPo profile.
We take a performance consulting approach to helping the performance of leaders and the organization as a whole that emphasizes achieving clearly identified business goals. Our Vision of Success framework is designed to help clients determine their unique and authentic vision, mission, values, and direction of their present and future DEI strategy and initiatives.

You company culture is a powerful competitive advantage. Learn from Stanford professor, Charles O'Reilly, and Pomello co-founder, Catherine Spence, how to create a culture strategy, and use technology to manage culture effectively.
Learning Objective: Discuss methods for increasing team productivity
Research has shown that there are a lot of reasons why employees leave a company, including burnout, boredom, less recognition, conflicts in the workplace, etc. Employee retention can save a company thousands of dollars and improve company morale. Working with your team on tasks such as brainstorming can show creativity, ranking their attributes can help you complement their strengths, and discussing employee career goals can add a lot of value to the project as it allows the team to flourish and meet company goals. This leads to employee satisfaction and feeling rewarded in their work and, most of all, appreciated. Making work fun and identifying accomplishments cures disengagement in the workplace.
At the end of this seminar, participants will be able to:
a. Identify factors that lead to employee disengagement.
b. Devise methods to engage employees and increase creativity and productivity.
c. Classify employee strengths to complement task assignments and discuss career goals.
d. Share methods for keeping employees engaged and feeling appreciated.
