From 2015 to 2020, representation of women in senior-vice-president positions grew from 23 to 28 percent, according to McKinsey & Company’s 2020 Women in the Workplace report. While the numbers are trending in the right direction, women are still dramatically underrepresented in leadership positions, and that’s not taking into account the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on women in the workplace. The most important action we can take to begin to close this gender gap is to acknowledge it. That’s where Females in Food comes in.
