Stopping the Downward Slide:
2 Proven Strategies for Retaining & Promoting Your Women Leaders

Presented by the Women in Leadership Institute

Women are opting out of the workforce, and the women who remain are at high risk of turnover. Two years into an ongoing pandemic, women leaders have had enough—and, according to Linkage research, their perception of their own organizations continues to decline.

Bottom line: Organizations have a business imperative to meaningfully engage—and ultimately retain—these high-value women leaders through leadership development experiences tailored to meet the needs of today’s evolving workforce.

But how? Tune into a previously broadcast, 1-hour webinar hosted by Jennifer McCollum, CEO of Linkage, for an insider’s look at how two Fortune 150 companies with 70,000+ employees each have implemented unique development experiences to change the game for their women leaders and created tangible impact on their promotion and retention rates.

Tune in to hear from: Emily Koski, VP, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at U.S. Bank, and Leah Truscott, Director, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at McKesson.
