| More Powerful Together |
|
This week, International Women's Day is being celebrated across the globe. The Australian theme #MorePowerfulTogether recognises the importance of collaboration and partnerships in achieving social outcomes. Gender equality is not just a women’s issue but also a business issue and achieving gender balance is essential for business and society to thrive.
The 2019 Edelman Trust Barometer provides a business case for why we are more powerful together. Edelman CEO Steven Spurr says that ‘collaboration and community’ are critical in increasing trust and highlights SVP Founding Member IAG as a great example of an organisation firmly committed to these values.
We look forward to seeing you at some of our upcoming events including our Insight networking event hosted by Cardno which will explore the unique challenges and opportunities of shared value partnerships.
Helen Steel
Chief Executive Officer
