“The Rosenzweig Report is a useful report card proving that Canadian companies are not doing enough to promote women into the highest levels of corporate leadership. I am personally proud of the fact that I was recruited into Manulife by a senior female executive, that Manulife led large publicly-traded financial institutions globally when our Board elected Gail Cook-Bennett as Chair back in 2008, and that 36% of our independent directors are now women... but there is clearly more to do here and elsewhere. Along with other forms of diversity, promoting capable women is just smart business.”
