Exciting new trend: companies are increasingly asking for gender data and are starting to use it for ambition setting and decision making on gender equality. @lshieldsher @bsrherproject #BSR19

Leadership is about increasing pain at a rate that people can tolerate. - how to drive change as a mayor from @sliccardo at #BSR19 @BSRnews

[Tara Norton @tnnw1]

First new term for me at #BSR19 : “Mind control technology.” What could possibly go wrong? Amazing presentation from @TanTTLe

[Tara Norton @tnnw1]

Only companies with a big unifying vision will survive...This is a time for ambition not caution...We need leaders who collaborate...and we need a sense of urgency.

I always appreciate @aroncramer’s opening words at our conference- and this year is no different. #BSR19 @bsrnews
