WHY THE WOMEN IN SALES AWARDS
WHY THE WOMEN IN SALES AWARDS
Sales is recognised as a major contributor to accessing C-suite positions. A study of the largest US corporations reveals that 62% of women are in positions that provide service and assistance but do not directly generate revenue. These roles very rarely lead to senior management jobs. In contrast, 65% of men on executive committees hold or held line jobs associated with revenue creation. This is one reason why the number of women CEOs in Fortune 500 companies has remained stubbornly low at around 3%. However women working in sales roles have often proved to be best-in-class at what they do. A perfect example is IBM’s Ginni Rometty – Ginni was IBM’s global sales leader before landing the Chief Executive role. Encouraging diversity in the workplace and on boards is increasingly seen as a way of making companies stronger in the modern business environment. One key contribution to diversity is provided by encouraging more women into all areas of business. Certainly the Sales environment can benefit from this type of diversification. The Women in Sales Awards (Europe, North America & India) has been created to bring a greater awareness of the need for gender diversity in sales and in executive leadership teams, as well as help grow the pipeline of female sales talent and to pave the way for more women to achieve board positions. Leaders of vision such as the companies who will be submitting nominations can provide a yardstick and guide for building successful generations of future business leaders.
