WHY OUR APPROACH IS DIFFERENT
20-first innovates in the area of gender by focusing on leaders rather than on women. We seek to promote ‘gender balance’ (a balance of men and women) rather than ‘women in leadership’.
Gender balance is above all a business issue. In a constructive and optimistic way, 20-first helps companies unlock the market and talent potential – and help them reap the considerable economic benefits – that gender balance brings.
SERVICES
Our suite of services helps companies design and implement a successful gender balance initiative at all levels of their organisation.
