Its begun: Next most powerful roles will be dominated by women
On one analyst’s recent list of top-10 CMOs in Silicon Valley, six were women.
While I have become accustomed to seeing the revolution in marketing and the role women have been playing, I was struck by just how many marketing executives are women.
During the Marketo customer summit last month, Hillary Clinton spoke about the importance of women attaining leadership roles in technology to an audience of 6,000, of which about 70% were women.
As a Owner and Investor in Start-Ups, I have long admired the impact of Women Executives such as Sue Bostrom, former CMO of Cisco, Angie Hicks, founder and CMO of Angie’s List, and Gail Ennis, former CMO of Omniture.
Brands need to have more women in senior leadership roles as boardrooms with a good gender balance lead to better outcomes for consumers.
Carol Potter, Edelman’s executive vice chairman for Asia-Pacific, Middle East & Africa says, "It’s not necessarily about being a woman, it’s about these so-called feminine values".
Potter fruther adds, "How do we manage our brands and companies with this kind of information, and how do we as women help other women get into those leadership positions? Because they can spread those feminine traits, let’s be honest, and it’s proven that companies are more successful as a result."
The statistics are compelling. According to a report carried out by nonprofit organisation Catalyst, companies with the highest percentage of women on their boards outperform those with the lowest by 42 per cent on return on sales, 53 per cent on return on equity, and 66 per cent on return on capital investment.
