Gender equality and economic growth can be perfect allies. So what actions can help companies achieve gender equality and inclusion while boosting productivity?
In celebration of International Women’s Day, join IE University for a workshop led by IE Professor Patricia Gabaldon focusing on the economic benefits of promoting women’s empowerment and leadership.

Women’s empowerment and leadership boost economic growth through many channels, including increasing productivity, innovation and governance. However, sometimes it is hard to understand the slow pace in reaching gender equality or the mechanism to achieve it.
