Women in Shared Services

Over the past months, enterprises across the world have had to face up to their gender policies. From Hollywood to Uber, we've been confronted with the ugly side of business – and that's not restricted to the corporate sector. The public sector, government and higher education are all experiencing the same.

So it's high time to place 'women in shared services' under the spotlight.
