English term or phrase: role modelling gender-sensitive behaviours
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?’

Explanation:
Gender sensitivity is the act of being aware of the ways people think about gender, so that individuals rely less on assumptions about traditional and outdated views on the roles of men and women. In language and the humanities, this is often expressed through people’s language choice. People can choose more inclusive language that doesn’t define gender, and many new words that are gender neutral have entered languages like English to substitute for more gender specific terms.

A role model is a person whose behavior, example, or success is or can be emulated by others, especially by younger people.[1] The term "role model" is credited to sociologist Robert K. Merton, who coined the phrase during his career.[2][3] Merton hypothesized that individuals compare themselves with reference groups of people who occupy the social role to which the individual aspires.[4] An example being the way fans (oftentimes youth) will idolize and imitate professional athletes or entertainment artists.
