While legislation has been in place for 40 years, a recent poll showed only 20% of senior management roles in the City are held by women.

Changing organizational culture requires acknowledging historical and social contexts regarding gender relations and addressing problematic aspects of historical masculinity that influence culture. Leadership and legislation are important drivers of change, but changing attitudes must also start in schools.
