How to improve gender diversity at leadership level

Andrew Bulloss, partner and head of the gaming practice at Odgers Berndtson, outlines five steps gaming companies can take to improve the gender balance within their senior leadership teams.
Last year the All-in Diversity Project published its industry benchmark report, which found that just 22.5% of non-executive board members in gaming companies were female.
At around the same time, Odgers Berndtson published The Global Leadership Team Diversity report, conducted in partnership with BoardEx. It found that a mere 19% of leadership team positions globally are held by women.
Of course, diversity is not just about gender; work needs to be done across the board to ensure that the entire spectrum of diversity is recognised within organisations and that all groups in society are represented in workforces.
