Founded in 2016 by a group of current and former business leaders, the Paradigm for Parity® coalition supports companies around the world in building inclusive workplaces where everyone has equal opportunity to thrive, with a focus on achieving gender parity in corporate leadership.
In partnership with our member company executives and recognized experts, Paradigm for Parity® promotes strategies that transform corporate culture to enable women of all races, cultures and backgrounds to have equal shared leadership opportunities. The coalition’s 5-Point Action Plan provides an actionable solution to catalyze change and assure that today’s business executives develop the best future leaders.
Companies with more than 30% women executives are more likely to outperform companies with smaller representations of women leaders. (McKinsey)
And yet, as of January 2023, there are only 41 women in CEO positions in S&P 500 companies. (Catalyst)
Women of color make up just 5.5% of senior leadership roles. (McKinsey)
Our 5-Point Action Plan is a roadmap of specific actions that when implemented simultaneously, will catalyze change to secure the best leaders of tomorrow.
Paradigm for Parity is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace.
In our efforts to help companies increase diverse representation, we adhere to all applicable laws. Our programs are designed to expand outreach, enhance access to opportunities, and cultivate an inclusive environment where all individuals can thrive. We do not engage in discrimination of any kind, and our diversity efforts do not impose quotas or preferential treatment based on protected characteristics. Instead, we focus on helping companies create a workplace where merit, qualifications and contributions drive success for all.
