2024 Women's Network | Bridging the Gap: Latinas in Leadership

A recent article published by Fortune shared shocking numbers as it relates to underrepresentation for Latinas in executive leadership roles and the critical issues Latinas face in corporate America. Despite significant contributions to the workforce, the article highlighted that Latinas hold only 1% of C-suite positions. In comparison to any other ethnic group, Latinas also experience the highest drop off for representation in the workplace, starting with entry-level positions.
