In partnership with Linkage, Parexel and Kaiser Permanente have driven tremendous impact for their women leaders and their organizations through focused leadership development initiatives. Tune in to the recorded webinar to get a look at these two unique women’s leadership development experiences, and discover the critical lessons to achieve success.

The theme of this year’s International Women’s Day, EMBRACE EQUITY, aligns perfectly to our mission at Linkage—and hopefully to the goals at your organization, as we all work toward a gender-equal world. One of the ways we do that is to take action to drive gender parity by building workplaces where women thrive.

International Women’s Day is a global day of recognition honoring the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. In honor of IWD and Women’s History Month, we asked several leading organizations about their plans to recognize this important day. Read on for an insider’s look at some of the exciting initiatives underway at Allegis Global Solutions, American Family, Constellation Brands, Corning, NFI, and Oracle, among others.

In just a few short days, we will kick off the Women in Leadership Institute™! We are coming to you live from Orlando, Florida, and through our virtual platform, which allows us to reach more women than ever before. We are also celebrating our sponsors and partnering organizations that are working toward a more equitable future of gender parity in all workplaces and providing women leaders with the support they need to achieve their highest leadership potential.

Linkage will recognize five exceptional leaders with the 2022 Executive Impact Award at the Women in Leadership Institute™, November 1–4, 2022. The winners are extraordinary leaders committed toward the advancement of women and cultures of inclusion in their organizations and communities.

Next week, we will welcome 2,600 women leaders to Linkage’s 22nd annual Women in Leadership Institute™ (WIL). This is the largest Institute in its history, and for the first time, we are bringing together women in person and virtually, making it the most accessible conference we have ever hosted—and that was very purposeful. We know that women in the workplace have been disproportionately professionally impacted by COVID-19, and the hurdles to advancement have never been higher.
