Beyond the Business Case: The startup ‘gender problem’

Although gender diversity is a prominent topic in the news, particularly with headlines like, “The business case for gender diversity,” the needle hasn’t significantly moved in the past 10 to 15 years. What accounts for the gap between talk and progress?

In the “Beyond the Business Case” podcast, Vanessa Ko interviews companies to uncover the best practices and policies they’re implementing to improve gender diversity. She also highlights innovations in the field that change the conversation on gender diversity in business.

This podcast was supported by the Institute for Gender and the Economy (GATE) as part of the MBA Student Fellows program, which seeks to engage students in advancing the agenda on gender equality.
