Last weekend, the YWCA South Florida board members and leadership team gathered for our Board of Directors Annual Retreat. This time was dedicated to deepening our commitment, aligning our strategies, and strengthening our bonds as a team to move our mission forward. At YWCA South Florida we believe that strong leadership is key to driving meaningful change. This retreat reinforced our dedication to leading with courage, compassion, and commitment as we continue our mission toward eliminating racism, empowering women, and promoting peace, justice, freedom, and dignity for all. We are excited to take the strategies and insights from this summit forward, confident that they will guide us in making an even bigger impact in the months and years to come.

Women in Leadership Saskatchewan is hosting a networking event featuring a panel discussion on unintentional misogyny. Not a cute and lighthearted discussion, but one we need to be having, in this case, 'we' is both men and women in the business world. Most people don't set out to be dismissive or rude, but the reality is sometimes we are. Sometimes the boardroom 'jokes', the golf course ribbing, and the coffee break commentary, make it clear that people are not actually 'pro-woman' and this leads to women leaving that workplace or industry as it has been made clear that opportunities there will look different for them than their male counterparts. Let's talk about it so we can fix it. Join me, the panel host, fellow board members, industry partners, and peers for an open and honest discussion. Register here, everyone is welcome: https://lnkd.in/gzzrgmqW

There is a lot of deserved woke and DEI pushback. Google's recent AI release is making the conversation more politicized. I personally am committed to diversity and am unashamed. The threshold is really simple per the Rooney rule developed in the NFL. They required at least one candidate of color to be interviewed for each coaching job. That seems like a pretty light lift. For Bonbon we want to make sure that every senior level position we make sure that we consider at least one woman or person of color. It is a small step that allows us to look beyond our immediate periphery for candidates that statistically produce better business outcomes. Yes diversity is good for business and it is proven to drive better business growth and enterprise value. https://lnkd.in/gT9dGShj
We are proud to announce that Bonbon has officially taken the Parity.org ParityPLEDGE. By signing this pledge, we promise to actively pursue gender and racial parity at all levels of our organization. We believe in the strength that diversity brings to our team and are committed to fostering an inclusive environment where women and people of color are empowered to thrive. This is more than just a pledge; it's a reflection of our ongoing commitment to build a more equitable and inclusive industry. We understand that change doesn't happen overnight, but we're dedicated to taking concrete steps towards this goal by promoting diversity in our leadership, ensuring equal pay for equal work, and creating opportunities for underrepresented groups. We invite our partners, clients, and peers to join us in this important commitment. Together, we can make a difference. Let's create a future where everyone, regardless of gender or race, has equal opportunities to succeed and lead. #DiversityAndInclusion #ParityPledge #EqualityForAll #InclusiveLeadership
