Women in the Workplace Dinner in Boston

Gabrielle Banzon recently attended a dinner hosted for alumni, students, and friends of UMass Boston to learn about the most recent findings and implications from the 2022 Women in the Workplace report conducted by McKinsey & Co. in partnership with LeanIn.Org.

This was the eighth year of the Women in the Workplace report and is the largest study of women in corporate America.

According to the report, women leaders are switching jobs at the highest rates we’ve ever seen, and ambitious young women are prepared to do the same. To make meaningful and sustainable progress toward gender equality, companies need to go beyond table stakes.

They surveyed more than 40,000 employees from 333 participating organizations and conducted interviews with women of diverse identities, including women of color, LGBTQ+ women, and women with disabilities, to get an intersectional look at biases and barriers.

The report was presented by Megan Greenfield, Partner, McKinsey & Company.

Following the presentation, there was a panel discussion featuring UMass Boston alumni.
