'There's a Lot of Work to be Done' to Even the Gender Playing Field in Business

Author: GovExec January 23, 2023 Duration: 30:38

 

Another year of the COVID-19 pandemic has come and gone, with a healthy dollop of inflation and economic uncertainty added. Women continue to be affected by the economic atmosphere in the United States and the world. In the wake of this, the National Women's Business Council, a nonpartisan federal advisory council, recently released its annual report. As women business owners and entrepreneurs move with the economic changes, the report has recommendations for 2023 and the years ahead.

Jaime Gloshay is member of the National Women's Business Council and Co-Founder of Native Women Lead. As part of our #MoneyMonday series, she joined the podcast to discuss the NWBC's annual report and women in business.
