Signature Programs, Events and Resources

Paradigm for Parity ® Profit & Loss Leadership Accelerator Program

Introduced in 2022, this signature program is a multi-pronged 6-month development program for early career (5 – 10 years) designed to fast-track women, particularly multicultural women, into senior operating roles that eventually lead to the C-Suite. The program leverages a simulation-centric design to increase retention and enhance talent development.

We would like to thank CVS, Merck and Adecco for their support as pilot sponsors. Their contributions to this program have been beneficial to so many of the participants in this initial program.
