Women in leadership roles

The UK economy needs two million new managers for it to achieve its predicted growth.

Women could contribute to filling the gap in leadership skills.  The Chartered Management Institute (CMI) has launched CMI Women with the aim of achieving gender equality and to help employers to unlock more value in the UK’s workforce.

In many organisations women outnumber the men at junior levels yet the CMI’s 2016 National Management Salary survey shows just 43% of management roles are held by women.  1.5 million new female managers are needed by 2024 to achieve a 50/50 split between men and women.

CMI Women has launched a Blueprint for Balance to help organisations achieve 50/50 management.

 

The 6 areas it focuses on are;

  • balanced recruitment,
  • flexible working,
  • mentoring and sponsorship,
  • pay and rewards,
  • promoting leadership equality,
  • skills and  career development.
