As you start 2012 and think about your company's goals for the year, consider boosting productivity by leveraging the power of its diverse human resources, particularly women. Ample evidence demonstrates that including more women in upper management increases efficiency and productivity, but many corporations struggle to make the shift to a more diverse workplace. Join us for a panel discussion featuring Corporate Vice President of Nissan Motor Company Asako Hoshino, Mayor of Yokohama Fumiko Hayashi and U.S. State Department Special Representative for Commercial and Business Affairs Lorraine J. Hariton as they discuss how to overcome challenges commonly faced by organizations trying to increase the number of women in upper management. They will also consider how utilizing women's networks and acting strategically to promote diversity bring success, both for employees and the company.
