As companies rethink the workplace, they must prioritize addressing the inequities that hold women back and forced women out of the workforce during the pandemic.

📈 A new @McKinsey report quantifies the #gendergap even further. It will take U.S. executive teams 29 years to #CloseTheGenderGap — that's 29 years of missed opportunities and innovations.
