To kick off the Brussels-based sessions, we thought that the symbol of the International Women's Day would provide us an excellent opportunity to reflect on the meaningful concept of "women in leadership". We are witnessing in the recent years an increasing number of women entering leadership roles, and the discussion will focus on how it has transformed not only the bottom line of business models and companies’ development, but also organizational behaviors, vision and practices. At the time of major economic and social shifts, leading transformation successfully requires change in management styles, and we believe that women have key roles to play.
