What beliefs are holding women back from leadership roles in today’s global business landscape?

Join us for a data-driven conversation that challenges the myths surrounding women in leadership. Presented by Anne-Marie Paiement, Regional Manager, APAC and Krista Pederson, Managing Director, APAC from Hogan Assessments and hosted by Katherine Kan, Managing Consultant from Optimal, this webinar explores how personality research can reshape the way we view gender and leadership potential.

Drawing on a global database of executive-level personality profiles, the session will uncover how commonly held assumptions—about ambition, decision-making, stress tolerance, innovation, and more—are often unfounded, and how these myths continue to shape organisational outcomes.

Key discussion points include:

· Leveraging global insights to advance gender equity in leadership
· Exploring the role of individual differences in leadership emergence for women versus men
· Exploring how cultural norms and structural support shape leadership opportunities
· Championing a new generation of women leaders by embracing individual differences
