Executive brief: Shared responsibility, stronger business: The case for gender partnership

As organizations seek sustainable approaches to inclusion, Catalyst's research shows that gender partnership strengthens both business performance and employee experience. When leaders model gender partnership behaviors, employees are more likely to see their organization as a place people want to work, a strong competitor, and prepared for the future. With only 54% of leaders consistently demonstrating gender partnership behaviors and just 29% of employees practicing them regularly, organizations have a significant opportunity to accelerate both inclusion and business results.
