Testimonials

It's a great experience to stop for a while and to look through yourself both from outside and inside. It is amazing (and shocking at the same time) to become aware of yourself and the things you have not noticed about yourself until this day. As an individual and a woman who continues her journey in business, I strongly recommend you to become part of this experience.

A Message from 41 North's Honorary Dean, Nüket Güz, Ph.D.

Why does Turkey have a greater need for women leaders?

“If we rephrase the question as, “Does Turkey need competent women leaders?” the obvious answer everybody would give is “absolutely yes”. But if the question is “Why do we have a greater need for women leaders?” the World Economic Forum 2017 report’s findings offer the best answers.

In the GLOBAL GENDER GAP REPORT 2020, data from 153 countries were used. The highest possible score is 1 and the lowest possible score is 0. Turkey unfortunately ranks 130th among 153 countries with its global gender gap score of 0.635.

If we take a look at countries scoring below Turkey in the cultural gender gap index (based on lower index rankings) we observe that Turkey is a few points above the following countries only: Mauritania, Côte d’Ivoire, Egypt, Jordan, Morocco, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Mali, Iran, Chad, Syria, Pakistan and Yemen.

In Turkey, while the gender gap in health and survival and educational attainment was being closed, the gap in political empowerment was abysmal (0.124). Quite clearly, Turkey still has a long way to go as regards economic participation (0.478). The contribution made by women in leadership positions in a country’s social, cultural, political, industrial and technological development and the related economic advancement is of great importance in Turkey, as it is worldwide.”

WHAT YOU LEARN?

Why a program specially targeting women?
Gender diversity in corporate management helps companies become more competitive, innovative and customer/employee focused. Throughout the world, equal gender distribution ratio in university graduation and initial recruitment drops down to 5% in women leaders in corporate management positions. In 2018 only 5% of the Fortune 500 CEOs are women… Moreover, the male-female income inequality ratio that drops down to around 35% in the same industry and roles, continues to remain as a significant issue in the business world. This program has been specially designed for women with a view to providing gender balance in the ever diminishing gender diversity starting from the first years of management up to the higher management levels and to promote more women remaining in the higher management candidate pool.
