Only 6.6% of leadership positions in Fortune 500 companies are held by women.<sup>1<\/sup> The gender leadership gap is especially problematic in fashion, where women make up more than 70 percent of the total workforce yet hold less than 25 percent of leadership positions in top fashion companies.<sup>2<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>Together with Vital Voices Global Partnership, Girlboss, as well as designer partners, Cushnie, <span class=\"xn-person\">Jason Wu<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-person\">Jonathan Simkhai<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-person\">Rebecca Minkoff<\/span>, and Studio One Eighty Nine, TRESemm\u00e9 invites the fashion industry and beyond to join in helping #WomenLeadTheWay.<\/p>\n<p>The #WomenLeadTheWay Pledge is a commitment to not only advance women into leadership, but to accelerate it in two tangible ways: <\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Strive for gender balance across their organization through balanced slates with respect to recruiting and promotion <\/li>\n<li>Establish formal development and mentorship opportunities for women at all levels of their organization <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&#8220;We know that women have the drive and experience to lead but their opportunities for leadership continue to lag, and we see a need for change,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Esi Eggleston Bracey<\/span>, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Beauty and Personal Care at Unilever North America. &#8220;Women should have access to training, mentorship and resources that can help support and propel them forward and we as companies and organizations in the industry should be accountable for providing those. It&#8217;s time we come together and take bold action to accelerate the pace of change.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For 70 years TRESemm\u00e9 has helped women express themselves with confidence, ensuring they look good and feel good as they make their mark on the world. But confidence only gets you so far in a broken system. TRESemm\u00e9 believes that when women lead the way, everyone benefits. <\/p>\n<p>TRESemm\u00e9 will help companies and organizations that sign onto the pledge by supporting them in the following ways: <\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Providing pledge participants with access to subject matter experts working in the women&#8217;s empowerment and leadership spaces to support development of customized programs. <\/li>\n<li>Holding one-on-one conversations with pledge participants to understand their unique needs in delivering on their commitment. <\/li>\n<li>Facilitating closed door meetings among pledge participants for open and honest conversations around gender equality, shared challenges and best practices.\u00a0 <\/li>\n<li>Actioning progress reporting among pledge participants to ensure accountability and progress.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In addition to supporting the partners of the #WomenLeadtheWay pledge, TRESemm\u00e9 remains committed to providing women with investment, resources and networking they need to become the leaders our world needs. Earlier this year, TRESemm\u00e9 helped to provide the Girlboss community of nearly 4 million women with access to resources and community building content to help them achieve their goals.\u00a0 More recently, TRESemm\u00e9 introduced a Leadership Incubator program with Vital Voices to support women on their leadership journey.\u00a0 Looking ahead, TRESemm\u00e9 will establish and fund a formal mentorship program within Unilever as it continues to strive for opportunities to accelerate women into leadership roles through hiring and recruiting practices. <\/p>\n<p>For individuals interested in supporting the pledge, visit tresemme.com\/pledge\u00a0for more information and to access a letter template that can be filled out and issued to employers, encouraging them to take action to support all women leaders \u2013 current and future. <\/p>\n<p>For more information on the pledge, how to join in, and TRESemm\u00e9&#8217;s various initiatives to support women leaders, visit <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=2570784-1&amp;h=488723978&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tresemme.com%2Fpledge&amp;a=tresemme.com%2Fpledge\" rel=\"nofollow\">tresemme.com\/pledge<\/a> and follow <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=2570784-1&amp;h=1055076182&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Ftresemme%2F%3Fhl%3Den&amp;a=TRESemm%C3%A9\" rel=\"nofollow\">TRESemm\u00e9<\/a> on Instagram.\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p>About Unilever United States, Inc.<\/p>\n<p>Unilever is one of the world&#8217;s leading suppliers of Beauty &amp; Personal Care, Home Care, and Foods &amp; Refreshment products with sales in over 190 countries and reaching 2.5 billion consumers a day.
