Best Practices

A Pathway to Sustainability

From Intention to Impact Guide

Showcasing Best Practices and Analyzing Behavioral Patterns to Advance Equality, Equity, and Inclusiveness in Swiss Entrepreneurship

The ‘From Intention to Impact Guide’ serves as a societal snapshot and a practical reference tool. Data reveals that while organizations increasingly treat gender equality as a competitive advantage, structured safeguards for resource allocation remain inconsistently applied.

This report offers a structured approach to identifying, analyzing, and highlighting practices that promote gender equity.

Best Practices in Action

Upcoming Event

Executive Session | Efficient Decision-Making

An expert facilitator-led executive session helping Swiss decision-makers turn diversity commitments into everyday practice

Monday, 9 November, 2026, 14:30-17:30, Deloitte Greenhouse Geneva

Your policies are in place and your goals are set. So why don’t the results follow? FE+MALE Think Tank brings together decision-makers from non-competing organisations for an expert facilitator-led afternoon focused on where bias quietly enters everyday calls on hiring, promotion, pay and performance.

Drawing on the Best Practices Guide 2026, participants work through two realistic diagnostic cases guided by experienced facilitators, exchange perspectives across sectors, and leave with concrete first steps for their own organisation, backed by a summary report and follow-up group coaching.

Seats: Limited to 6–8 organisations, 2–5 seats each

Registration closes on 25 October 2026.

Get in touch with Patricia M. Montesinos at patricia@femalethinktank.com to receive the full program.
