Founder/CEO , Institute for Gender Partnership and Women's Leadership, Inc.
ContactI have been working on the front lines of gender equality, which I call Gender Partnership, for more than 25 years. My first trainings, offered under the aegis of The Institute for Women's Leadership (IWL) focused on teaching women the skills and ATTITUDES needed for leadership. That was in 1991.
By the time 1995 rolled around, I realized that my super-talented graduates weren't going to get the upper-level jobs they were now qualified for unless we trained the men working with them to recognize and appreciate their talents and support their advancement. So we began offering CO-ED programs, both off-site and in-house -- and things began to change.
