The question has never been whether women can lead as capably as men.
The question that we need to ask is, why is women’s leadership invisible?

Amelia Earhart, born #OnThisDay, was the 1st woman & 2nd person to fly solo across the Atlantic.
After crossing the Pacific, she became the 1st person to have flown solo across both oceans.

At the current rate of progress, it will take 130 years to reach gender equality in the highest positions of power.
To change course, power must be shared equally, made visible and accountable, at all levels
That is what’s at the core of feminist leadership.
