Ruby Report Book Launch Reveals Critical Insights on Gender Intelligence
Mississauga, Ontario (PRWEB) September 22, 2014 -- The Ruby Report was launched by the publisher on August 1st, 2014 at the PWN International Conference in Louisville, Kentucky. This release followed the May 6, 2014 Canadian release that was celebrated with a reception attended by 60 people from the local area. During this reception Dawn shared insights she had gained while conducting her research, what drove her to study the organizational side of the glass ceiling issue, and what she believes companies can do to be successful in the future. Video highlight reel of Dawn speaking at the May 6th event can be found at http://www.therubyreport.com.
Women represent a talent pool that remains largely untapped for senior leadership roles despite the equal numbers that enter the leadership pipeline compared to men. Focusing her research in this area, Dawn connected with Financial Post Top 100 companies that have demonstrated leadership opportunities for women and have recorded ongoing success.
The result identified key drivers consistently reported by women as being essential to getting promoted. They must have support mechanisms such as strong mentors, developmental opportunities and effective feedback in order to be successful. In addition, the work environment needs to facilitate the opportunity for success and the women themselves need to be exceptional performers who take ownership of their career.
“The Ruby Report is a well-researched assessment of what is underlying in many companies when it comes to leadership opportunities for women. As an executive, I recognize that the gender intelligence conversation needs to continue and I think Dawn has highlighted where the discussion can lead,” said Suzanne Gagliese, VP Sales at Fujitsu Canada. “I look forward to personally discussing this with her.”
