Membership of the 30% club is not based on corporate membership of Business Engage, however, many corporates have found it valuable to participate and share best practice and expertise through our shared-value programme which corporates contribute to on an annual basis.

The vision is to ensure that Africa becomes the hub for gender mainstreaming whereby good news stories are shared with the rest of the world rather than relying on international data to benchmark our success.

Gender Matters - a practical response to the slippery ladder
“We believe that the best way to influence change is to strengthen and grow the current conversation, then couple that with deliberate actions.” Colleen Larsen
In this book Col Larsen delves into the issues of gender mainstreaming as a business Issue. She has been involved in gender issues in the private sector for several years and has come to realise that many companies want to change: they profess an urge to implement diversity, inclusion and belonging, and express policies geared towards gender equity. She has also seen there is a genuine desire by the more enlightened leaders to be more gender-balanced in their upper echelons and senior management structures.
This is a practical book for all those who want to make it to the top or at least want to go far in the business world. This book is for men just as much as women. As we say, it is a business issue after all.
