5 MUST-WATCH VIDEOS THIS INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY

It's widely known that more gender diversity is required in the workplace, specifically in leadership roles and seats on boards, which are commonly filled by men. But why has progress towards gender diversity been so slow? Has there been too much noise, causing people to glaze over it or do individuals think the problem is far bigger than them and left the all-important job to organisations to fix? 

Either way, it's clear that a big component of pushing along gender diversity is knowledge and education. Once each individual fully understands that they are the solution to the problem, we will finally be able to hurry up history. 

With that in mind, we have done the research for you and gathered 5 must-watch videos, providing all important information on gender diversity.
