Over to you, Warren Buffet -

• There is a great deal I could say about the whole subject of women in leadership

• On this occasion I’m going to hand over to Warren Buffet, one of the world’s most renowned investors:

“For most of our history, women - whatever their abilities - have been relegated to the sidelines … We've seen what can be accomplished when we use 50% of our human capacity. If you visualize what 100% can do, you'll join me as an unbridled optimist about America's future”.

• Apart from the fact that it’s good to have such a high profile endorsement, Buffet’s recent article, from which the above quotations are taken, was addressed primarily to men

• That’s a key point. Working to achieve a more equitable position for women at the top of organisations is not in any way an anti-male activity

• Question: Do you think men are becoming more supportive of promoting more women to senior roles?
