The Future of Revenue is about utilizing artificial intelligence to enable employers to make decisions to maximize the potential of their workforce. When 96% of CEOs say gender equity is one of their top 10 priorities while only 22% of employees say that gender diversity is regularly measured and shared, the leaky workforce pipeline is not being addressed and leaving financial returns on the table. So how do employers identify the cracks in the workforce pipeline and improve their financial performance?

In this talk, Katica Roy, explains how she’s built a robust, data-driven platform using advanced technology, including artificial intelligence, to ensure equitable decisions and eradicate bias in human capital decisions that leads to improved financial performance for the organization, as well as growth for the individual.

Many believe gender equity is a social issue, but the economics tell us it is a massive, trillion dollar opportunity. In fact, every 10% increase in gender equity boosts company revenue by 1-2%. Companies that want to do right by all their stakeholders—employees, customers, investors, and communities alike—need a plan to fix the leaky pipeline of women and other under-resourced talent cohorts. Learn why it pays to prioritize gender equity in the workplace.

When we make it all about women, we leave behind the other approximately 50% of the conversation: men. Men not only play a sizable role in the gender equity conversation, they also play a critical role in the solution, as they lead over 90% of Fortune 500 companies, are the decision-makers in 90% of venture capital deals, and hold more than 70% of board seats. Enough with shaming and sidelining men, it’s time to welcome them into the dialogue. After all, equity is not a zero-sum game. Its benefits extend to all genders.

Using geographic and industry-specific data, this customized talk demonstrates how gender inequity constricts the economic pie for everyone—not only women. Learn how gender equity benefits your community and discover how grassroots, together with grass tops, efforts can bend the arc of history toward inclusion.

Is Social Security a gender equity issue? What about immigration, healthcare, and international trade? The truth is, gender equity runs through nearly every facet of our society and economy. By closing the gender equity gap in the United States, we can unlock $3.1 trillion in economic potential. From education to innovation, student loan debt to Social Security, and poverty to healthcare, a common thread exists in the effort to improve performance: gender equity.

The problem businesses have with gender equity is not awareness, it’s execution. 96% of CEOs list gender equity among their top priorities, but only 22% of employees say that gender diversity is regularly measured and shared. To unlock the massive financial gains of gender equity, companies must use artificial intelligence to augment (i.e. de-bias) human decisions. The Future of Revenue depends on it: every 10% increase in gender equity boosts company revenue by 1-2%. Learn how to embed gender equity into the employee lifecycle to ensure every talent decision is not only free of bias, but also made in the company’s financial best interest.
