Happy #internationalwomensday !
International Women's Day (#iwd2024) is a global celebration of the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women and serves as a powerful reminder of the progress made towards gender equality as well as highlighting the work that still needs to be done.
Currently, only 31% of leadership roles around the world are held by women. In manufacturing, women represent only 19% of those in leadership roles.
On average, women earn 16% less than men, or 84 cents for every dollar a man makes. Women of color are among the lowest-paid workers, making just 56 cents for every dollar that white, non-Hispanic men make. A 20-year-old woman just starting full-time, year-round work stands to lose $407,760 over a 40-year career compared to her male counterpart. The Center for American Progress projects that gender pay equity won't become a reality until 2056.
Let us continue to work together to lift each other up and support one another while we break down barriers, challenge stereotypes, and create environments where all women are valued and respected.
Cheers to all the women in my life who inspire and support me every day; from those who have broken barriers and are in executive leadership roles to those that are absolutely killing it as they raise their family, each one influences me by their shear show of strength and perseverance in everything they do.
