WHY ARE WOMEN IMPORTANT ON BOARDS? Better decisions! Better results! Having women on boards improves companies' strategic decision-making, leading them to consider wider ranges of options. Female representation on boards of directors results in better company performance. Researchers find that having women on boards is making an impact. Companies with more women on their board improve cohesiveness and decision-making, increase corporate social responsability and respond better to change. Gender balanced boardrooms are almost 20% more likely to improve business outcomes. It also encompasses breaking down barriers, challenging societal norms and stereotypes, and creating opportunities for women to thrive in leadership roles. By supporting female entrepreneurs and investing in their businesses, we can empower women to create more diverse and inclusive workplace.

Women in leadership: Inspiring inclusion Yesterday, I had the honor of attending an inspiring panel discussion in honor of International Women's Day. The panel highlighted the importance of women's voices being heard and encouraged them to speak up without fear. It was incredibly inspiring to hear about their experiences and challenges as women in leadership, as well as how to overcome those challenges. One organization that stood out to me helps immigrant women in danger who come to Ireland seeking help to reintegrate into society. This is a great example of how women in leadership are making a positive impact and promoting inclusion. Let's continue to celebrate and support women in leadership, and work towards a more inclusive future. #InternationalWomensDay #womenleadership
