‘We need more female leaders’

ORGANISATIONS need to develop talent management strategies to address the gender gap in leadership positions, a certified trainer and entrepreneur said.

Dr Hjh Mona Yati DSLI Hj Mohd Kassim, founder of muBn Learning and Growth Company, said there is still a gap in men and women occupying decision-making positions.

“Women leaders have such potential. The fact is that women comprise half of the workforce. I think that we have done a lot in terms of providing equal opportunities, but male colleagues are still promoted more than women,” she said in an interview.
