4 Women on 2019's Women in the Workplace Study

In this week's Mini-Sode, we discuss McKinsey and LeanIn's annual "Women in the Workplace" report, released at the end of last year. The 2019 report focuses on the "broken rung" for women, which is at the manager level - well before the CEO and C-Suite roles.
We share our (candid) thoughts on the report - including what surprised us and what did not about the latest data. We also discuss the solutions presented in the report and how we have seen those solutions work or not work. Finally, we share some of our ideas for how to drive change.
We would love to hear what you thought about the report - please reach out and share, especially if you have ideas on how to solve the "broken rung"!
