How could society benefit from gender-smart work policies and practices?

The human-centred business model recognises that gender equality not only improves a company’s work culture but also advances its competitive advantages.

“It’s not just good for society though, companies embracing equality tend to perform better too.”
Clarisse Djabbari, Deputy Head of Lyxor ETFs & Indexes (from Equileap, Gender Equality Global Report & Ranking, 2018 Edition p. 6)
