In advocating for the value of gender diversity on boards and in senior management, environmental, social and governance (ESG) practitioners frequently cite research illustrating the business benefits, including improved financial performance and shareholder value, rising investor confidence, and enhanced market knowledge and reputation.
But does the research really add up?
Join us for a free 1-hour webinar with the authors of the IFC publication: Women in Business Leadership Boost ESG Performance: Existing Body of Evidence Makes Compelling Case. The authors conducted a comprehensive literature review to uncover substantial evidence connecting increased gender diversity in business leadership with enhanced environmental, social and governance standards. They identified equally strong evidence connecting better ESG with stronger corporate performance, building a comprehensive business case for the value of women’s participation on boards and in senior management.
