WHY Should Your Organisation Address the Gender Balance?

DIAFORA works with the leadership teams of progressive companies to identify whether gender is actually a strategic issue for their businesses - and why.

1. Commit: top management, strategically
• Executive Committee Presentations: present, debate and draft the business case
2. Measure: existing reality, milestones, targets
   • GENDER QuickScans: audit the existing reality in your organisation
3. Inform: goals, policies, business case
   • communications is a key aspect of the success (or failure) of gender initiatives
