With the first year of statutory gender pay gap reporting now behind us, organisations are looking at how to ensure their difference in average pay for men and women improves.
This Personnel Today webinar, in association with Skillsoft, looks at the common themes that organisations have faced in reporting their gender pay gap and offers practical advice on improving diversity in leadership.
What are some companies doing well and what can they better? What’s the best way to increase the number of women in senior leadership teams? What can companies do to tackle gender stereotypes?
Your host, Rob Moss, is joined by two speakers. Charlotte Sweeney is a well-known expert and author in diversity and inclusion, who will share how HR teams can embed an inclusive culture into their organisations. And Nikki Wilton, Global Sales Director at Xchanging, will share practical tips on how her company has helped overcome the challenges faced by women in senior leadership roles.
Attendees will be able to:
- Understand the challenges faced by women in senior leadership teams and how to overcome them
- Learn how gender pay gap reporting can trigger change
- Appreciate how data analysis can identify D&I issues
- Recognise how D&I coaching can help improve employee effectiveness
- Hear first-hand case studies of how other organisations are progressing their equality agenda.
This 60-minute webinar will include presentations from both our speakers and a live Q&A session where the audience can pose questions to our panel.

We already have >50% of our senior roles taken by women (about 51% actually). Why would we want them to be disproportionately over-represented ?
Good post. Organisations should be required to have differential pay rates for women, say 110% of a mans wage (say a statutory obligation to pay them what a man is entitled to plus 10%). Although I think the downside is that employers will not recruit women if they are too expensive. A +10% margin will compensate for any actual and perceived short fall.
