Recently, female leaders from all over the world gathered in Brussels and joined the first Women's Parliament (WIP) World Forum. I am honored to participate.

About 120 years later, the group's Nobel laureates, government leaders, European Commission, European Ministers, and scholars from more than 100 countries gained unique opportunities to develop concrete strategies. Create a new direction for women

The topics covered here include the impact of globalization on gender equality and the role of academia in the formation of the next generation of female leaders. Clearly, the law aimed at promoting diversity has brought about a difference, but it does not provide all the answers.

A recent survey by Ernst & Young highlighted the gender equality problem facing the senior leadership of the public sector. According to reports, women make up an average of 48% of the public sector's labor force, but account for less than 20% of G20's public sector leaders.

In addition to the law, cultural change in the public sector and the private sector is an urgent task. Strong examples in the organization and the presence of female leaders will help strengthen accountability for policies and legislation aimed at increasing diversity. For example, these policies may be described properly, but even if you work part-time in a department, you need to ensure that all departments have the opportunity to make progress.

Prejudice against unconscious women is another task, but that can never be overcome. The leader can solve this as follows.

Resolve cheating and attitudes that leads by example, impairing gender equality

Open your mind about how unconscious bias affects adoption, promotion and other decisions - discuss, measure and implement a system to minimize it

We strive to strengthen respect for public sector adoption practices and sectoral cultural improvement and diversity

Equally important, female leaders should consider their own legacy in the workplace and take responsibility for management so that their organization can work better for women of the future generation.

I have built a leadership position in the public sector, the private sector, and the non-government sector. Truly diverse teams can innovate and create new ways to solve problems. When the next WIP Global Forum's plans began, Ernst & Young is pleased to assist female legislators to leverage collective experiences for social benefit.
