PWN Paris Newsletter October 2019
Last June PWN
Paris became inclusive opening its doors to men while keeping its
purpose of promoting female leadership and a more equitable society
and economic environment.
Indeed despite all the effort on women
development, the situation is hardly evolving : only 15% of women in
executive committee, remaining pay gap... despite laws and reports
demonstrating the economic benefit of more balanced management.
Why so? Well, we cannot have an action one-sided
when the topic involves both men and women. So the change can only
happen if women and men act side by side to foster change within
organizations.
PWN has the legitimacy to drive change ; PWN
wants to be at the forefront and bring innovative approaches to
accelerate the movement.
By opening the network to men, we are conscious
that is a significant transformation. Such a move doesn’t come
without risk ; it needs careful orchestrating to ensure respect and
preservation of our culture and values.
Part of this process is to welcome men, convinced
about the urgency to act, and adapt our way of doing to become an
inclusive network. Today 12 men have already joined PWN Paris.
To this extent, we gathered, on October 15, 60
people with a perfectly balanced representation of men and women. The
2-hour discussion without taboo was so energizing and encouraging.
Many concrete ideas popped up: experience sharing of men and women to
uncover stereotypes , mentoring, ambassador role within organizations
...
This is just a beginning, we will reflect on all
the suggestions made and build new strategies and development plan. We
will soon come back to you with a proposal.
We are confident that you share with us the
obligation to transforming our beloved network to adapt to the
twenty-first century.
