There is a huge amount of data that supports the fact that having more women in leadership roles produce better outcomes in business.

In fact, female leadership benefits can actually be quantified in that for every 10% increase in gender diversity earnings rose by a stunning 3.5% showing that women have a measurable impact on the bottom line when promoted to leadership roles. Women provide a varied, and perhaps needed, set of skills and perspectives and also approach problems with a different structural and cultural approach that complements a male-only perspective
