Glenda Stone TOP 50 quote

Dr Glenda Stone, CEO of Aurora that manages the annual TOP 50 initiative said:

"Organisations in the TOP 50 are very effective at identifying innovative and diverse ways to recruit female talent and they leave no stone unturned. This however is only half the challenge because retaining good women is also essential. Thankfully organisations are getting much better at educating women about what is on offer if they do choose to work for them, how they will support their aspirations,
and how this differentiates them from their competitors."
