The ripple effects of COVID-19 removed nearly 2 million women from the U.S. workforce, and it will take years to recover that lost ground. Ellevate, aims to overcome this gap, delivering programming to forge better professional opportunities for all women.
I love the idea of flexibility and remote work. It not only can support diversity and hiring as you look across the world, but also can create an environment where people are set up to succeed, depending on their situations. I say that as a mom of three who was homeschooling during the pandemic and am still unclear what school will be like come the fall.
Marquis: What suggestions do you have for businesses to be more effective in supporting women, families, and other caregivers in the workplace?We work with a number of companies that are tapping into our programming and resources kind of as a plug-and-play to ensure that they’re supporting the women in the workplace. As we look toward the future of work and where we go from here, one step is acknowledging working caregivers — women, men, those caring for people with disabilities.
Companies also need to ensure that this becomes part of their values and entire business model, not just from the top down. This can include tying executive compensation to hitting DEI goals but also creating the conversations, metrics, training, and support at each level within your company to ensure that your managers are not coming with bias, and are managing their teams so that everyone has an equal chance to succeed.
Marquis: In terms of equity, what programming does Ellevate offer to support different groups of women, to support women of all identities? One thing we do is create a safe space for black women in our community, for AAPI women, and others to come together and support one another. So they can talk about those shared experiences, what they are navigating during this time in the workplace, in the world, and how to best support one another without shared understanding.
