Jay Rosenzweig, the inspiring Chair of our Raoul Wallenberg Centre For Human Rights Board, has issued yet again his report on women in leadership, as a call to action to do more to achieve gender equity in the boardrooms of our nation and beyond. His work empowers women and puts them at the forefront not only in corporate boards, but in all walks of life, be it arts, science, the political sphere, and other decision making bodies of our nation. It serves as a reminder that equitable corporate representation of women is not only good for business – good for the economy – but empowers women in the pursuit of justice, good governance, equality – and the making of a better Canada and a better world.
