With 35 years of experience as a CEO, I’ve learned that our most precious resource is not capital, talent or technology — it’s time. It’s finite, irreplaceable and unequally distributed. And, ironically, it’s the very thing many of us feel we lack when trying to prioritize our he

Gender equality is now a top priority for 78% of companies (up from 56% in 2012), yet less than half of employees feel we’re doing enough. While the pay gap (for equal work) is closing, the promotion gap isn’t, leaving women making 76 cents on the dollar compared to men. And the gender gap isn’t expected to close for another 170 years.
