Pay equity is a hot topic and there are several important aspects to consider when evaluating compensation parity at the executive level.
“It is important for women to evaluate their total compensation package, not just their guaranteed base salaries.
Companies are unlikely to offer a sign-on bonus unless there is an ask from the candidate in the negotiation process and the same is true on bonus potential.”
– Tara Flickinger, partner at ON Partners
“The trendline of more women in pipeline roles is not at all surprising.
The investment in talent development over the last decade is continuing to show exponential returns – not just with more women in positions of leadership today, but in the path they’re creating for the next generation that’s having a compounding effect.”
– Bryan Buck, managing partner at ON Partners
“The CIO and CTO functions have historically been highly technical, requiring deep engineering expertise, but these roles have evolved.
Companies are recognizing that a diverse leadership team brings better decision-making and business outcomes. The result is more negotiating power for women when moving into these positions.”
– Nina McMaster, partner at ON Partners
