English term or phrase: Walking the talk
One of the common elements observed in this Best Practices report is the prominent role of CEOs and other board members in starting and leading the gender diversity initiative. ‘Walking the talk’ by role modelling gender-sensitive behaviours and showing serious commitment by taking concrete actions, such as immediately appointing women to visible top management positions and ensuring their on-boarding process is well-organized, are imperative for the initiative to take hold in the organisation. CEOs should start asking the right question: ‘What’s wrong with us that we do not have at least 30% women represented at top level?’
