Women, Don’t Sell Yourselves Short… on LinkedIn!
Catalyst is a global nonprofit working with some of the world’s most powerful CEOs and leading companies to build workplaces that work for women. In March 2020, they published their latest research findings that included, among others:
- 36% of global boards had at least three women in 2019, up from 32% in 2018
- Women need to hold at least three board seats to create a “critical mass”, which can lead to better financial performance and more innovative ideas that spring from gender diversity
- Women’s board tenures are shorter and they are less likely to hold leadership positions than men. However, women holding leadership positions on boards is positively associated with other women directors having longer board tenures.
Looking further into research data, Linda Babcock’s study for her book “Women Don’t Ask” reveals that:

Market Signals (Week 40)
The art of interpreting signals (precursors of trends) is – and always has been – important in navigating financial markets and economies. If you are an experienced manager or executive who wants to manage their career and/or job search processes wisely, look at the signals of the job market which are inseparably embedded in the VUCA landscape of today’s world.
We usually keep the collected data to ourselves. But these are not usual times, so we decided to share our insights at the end of each week. If the country / context is important, we’ll add them. Otherwise, we’ll keep it general for confidentiality.
Introduction to Market Signals (Week 40)
