What do we know about the status of women in leadership positions in business? We now know quite a lot, thanks to Dr Lama Moussawi, tenured associate professor and associate dean for research and faculty development at the Olayan School of Business, and her colleagues at the Center for Inclusive Business and Leadership for Women. Three years ago they launched the center to find out exactly how women fared in this realm, and how more women could be hired, promoted, and retained. She explains the results of their regional research in 11 Arab countries, what they know about why women are not treated as well as men, why inclusive companies do better than non-inclusive ones, and how they plan to expand women’s roles in business and leadership in the years ahead.
