“The demand for women professionals is seeing significant attention, and companies recognizing this trend are not only aligning with investor expectations but also experiencing positive outcomes. This trend is now a criterion used by investors to assess a company’s impact on the environment, society, and governance. In nearly 30% of our mandates spanning diverse sectors, there’s a distinct preference for women candidates over their male counterparts. The objective, we have observed, is no longer an HR discussion; rather is being driven by the boards. The leaders of today are making diversity a top priority, establishing it as a non-negotiable component of their corporate agenda, to create diverse, equitable, and balanced workspaces of tomorrow.” – Mr. Atul Vohra, Managing Partner, TRANSEARCH India
