Female boardroom representation continues to develop within the major retail and retail property groups, although Europe continues to lag North America and Asia in diversity. As International Women’s Day approaches, for the fourth year running MAPIC highlights some of the leading female executives driving business with purpose.
Our fourth annual showcase of senior female leaders includes those who are having a profound impact on the physical retail environment and leading the next generation of destinations and investment.
While the importance of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) is clear in terms of creating diverse leadership, the list as ever continues to be a reminder that there is still a very long way to in terms of ensuring better leadership representation across the BAME community in both retail and real estate.
Our list will no doubt cause many of you to think of others we may have included, so please do let us know who you think we should feature in future articles.
The new retail equation: 24 for 2024
