As GBS evolves amid digital transformation and increasing complexity, the need for adaptable, purpose-driven leaders has never been greater. Yet, leadership pathways remain challenging due to gender equity gaps, unconscious bias, and self-limiting beliefs.

From mentorship and sponsorship to authentic leadership and career navigation, learn how to empower women in leadership while building a culture that supports diverse talent.
