The 2026 Balance in Business Awards are an opportunity to celebrate businesses driving real change and improving gender representation in the workplace. We recognise the leaders shaping a fairer, more inclusive future for business.
…recognising organisations who are working towards improving gender balance – introducing new policies and bringing to life innovative initiatives
All companies are different, but we notice some clear trends and lessons:
- Accountability must be shared: more and more companies have initiatives to incentivise all layers of the organisation to build more equitable, inclusive teams.
- ‘What gets measured, gets managed’ – know your data, embed it into the company’s strategy, measure your results
When recruiting, cast your net wide.- Inclusive leadership training for senior leaders is critical to help improve understanding of the challenges to inclusion and gender equity and become active agents for change.
- The importance of agile working policies – for example, not only flexible parental leave programmes but also parental transition coaching, return to work adjustment days, and networking events for parents
- It is a leadership issue, a business transformation issue not a women’s issue nor men’s
