3 Objectives This study was conducted to gain feedback from senior business leaders on: The development, career progress, work/life balance, mentoring, and organizational support for women in the workplace; The current presence of women in leadership roles; The effectiveness of recruiting, retaining, and developing women executives; The importance of key performance metrics and how women leaders perform in these areas; and Perceived barriers to the advancement of women into leadership roles. Introduction Methodology The questionnaire was developed by Percept Research and the University of North Carolina Kenan-Flagler Business School. The survey was administered via a web survey hosted by Percept Research. Percept Research processed all completed questionnaires, tabulated data, and developed graphical presentation of results. Segmentation This report provides comparative analysis of the following segments of interest. All questions displayed in this report were mandatory with the following number (N) of completed interviews. *Response Rate calculation does not take into account s returned as undeliverable or out of office Fielding Overview Fielding Started: 02/07/2012 Fielding Completed: 02/24/2012 3

4 How to Read this Report Bar Charts Overall ratings and data are presented in bar charts as means. Unless otherwise noted, all responses are based on a 0-5 scale. Typically 0-1 is considered a poor rating while 4-5 is considered a high rating based on a 0-5 scale. Response options are displayed in order of decreasing mean rating for easier interpretation in the bar charts. Verbatim Document The Verbatim Document displays all other (specify) questions and openended questions. The qualitative responses are presented without spelling or grammatical correction to preserve original intent. Graphical Report Segmentation is based on results to survey questions: Male vs. Female: categorization based on response to question C1 What is your gender? Talent Development Managers vs. Non Talent Development Managers: categorization based on response to question C5 Are you in a talent development function (e.g., HR, leadership development, human capital) in your organization? Title: categorization based on response to question C4 Which of the following best describes your title in your company? 4

5 Key Findings Respondents perceive a positive trend in the number of women holding senior leadership positions (see slide 9). Approximately half (48%) stated the number has increased over the past five years while believe it has decreased. There is a correlation between level in organization and perception of the increase of women in leadership positions. Sixty percent of C-Suite Executives reported an increase over the last five years compared to 38% of Managers. When asked how the number of women holding senior leadership positions will change in the next five years the answers become less clear. While 4 of respondents believe the number will increase, 28% believe it will stay the same, and 3 don t know if it will decrease, increase, or stay the same (slide 10). Men have a more positive outlook than their female counterparts. Nearly two-thirds (65%) of male respondents believe the number of women in leadership positions has increased over the past 5 years and 57% believe the number will continue to increase over the next 5 years. This is significantly higher than the 44% and 36%, respectively, reported by female respondents. 5

6 Key Findings Only eleven percent of respondents believe their organizations are extremely effective in recruiting women executives while fourteen percent stated their companies were not at all effective (slide 11). The more senior the respondent the more positive the view on their company s recruiting efforts. Over half (53%) of C-Suite Executives selected extremely or moderately effective compared to 28% of Managers. It should be noted that the majority of C-Suite Executives in this study were female (69%), so the gender and title comparisons can be viewed separately. Once women achieve these senior levels, companies are doing an effective job with retention. Fifty-seven percent of respondents believe their companies are extremely effective or moderately effective in retaining women executives (slide 12). Men believe their companies are more effective in retaining woman than women. While 73% of men believe their company is extremely or moderately effective only 52% of women feel similarly. 6

7 Key Findings Companies continue to create an organizational climate that is doing a moderate job in its support of the development of women s leaders. Over one-third (38%) of the respondents indicated the organizational climate at their companies moderately encourage the development of women leaders (slide14). This is similar to the 2010 Study by Mercer that found 43% of their respondents stating the same level of support (from their 2010 Women s Leadership Development Survey ). Slightly more respondents in the current study selected to a small extent (28%) than to a great extent (22%). As with the previous findings, men and C-Suite Executives have a more positive opinion of the support systems available to women executives. Comparative analysis of public to private companies and company size did not yield any actionable statistical differences. 7

Of the 39% of respondents that stated there were initiatives or programs for women, a significantly lower percentage believe there is a specific leadership program (1) versus some initiatives or programs (29%). This takeaway box refers to findings from question B3 on the next slide. One half (5) of respondent companies have deployed flexible work arrangements within the last three years to identify, assess, retain and development women leaders. Other highlyselected options include programs to encourage female networking and role models, mentoring of junior women, and CEO & senior executive oversight of gender diversity efforts. Conversely, approximately one quarter of companies (23%) have not undertaken any efforts for women leaders. 15
