Gender Diversity in Jordan – Research on the Impact of Gender Diversity on the Economic Performance of Companies in Jordan, International Finance Corporation (IFC) 2015.

Women are Key for Corporate Success blog by Ahmed Attiga (IFC) of 10 December 2015. 

This is a research on the impact of gender diversity on the economic performance of companies in Jordan. Despite constituting a large portion of society in Jordan, women have a minor presence in boardrooms and in senior decision-making positions.

The research sets out to demonstrate the degree of involvement by women in boardrooms and senior decision-making positions in the corporate world; the value of their presence when they are involved in those positions; and some of the challenges that women face in reaching such decision-making positions.

The publication also includes recommendations for ways to overcome those challenges.
