Women in leadership often create better, more profitable workplaces. Yet, as late as 2018, women held just one out of every 20 CEO spots. And in middle management, women sat in only 40% of managers' chairs despite accouting for 50% of the workforce. Yet there are clear reasons why companies should eagerly look to promote women and ensure they're engaged. What are the benefits of women in leadership? On this episode of the CFO Weekly podcast, Lydia Adams, vice president, marketing & communications at Personiv, discusses the benefits of having women in leadership roles.

Embrace Change, Don’t Fear It w/ Jill Barnard: A famous Greek philosopher once said, “The only constant is change.” But most of us aren’t huge fans of change. We get upset when the grocery store changes their layout, or when our favorite app gets redesigned and we have to learn our way around it all over again. As a business leader, you’ve got the unique responsibility to help your organization navigate change, and never has that been more true than during the current COVID-19 pandemic. It seems like every aspect of life is changing every second right now. So how do you embrace change? How do you set your company culture up in such a way where change isn’t feared, but viewed as an opportunity for growth and development? On this episode of the CFO Weekly podcast, we talked with Jill Barnard, CFO at Televerde about -Managing for change, -How her company went fully remote within 24 hours -Why so many companies stick their heads in the sand and wait for the challenges to pass by. by CFO Weekly
