Despite efforts among Canadian public and private sector organizations to achieve a diverse workforce, the overwhelming majority of them – 82 per cent – do not have a clear strategy or philosophy for the development of women into leadership roles, according to the Women’s Leadership Development Survey conducted by Mercer in conjunction with Talent Management and Diversity Executive magazines.
The survey, conducted in December 2010, includes responses from 290 human resources, talent management and diversity leaders at organizations across Canada. The survey included a broad cross-section of industries, with health care, for-profit services, public sector, financial and technology organizations representing the largest segments. Asia Pacific, U.S., Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) were also surveyed.
