During a recent fireside chat hosted by Elizabeth Garson, a senior consultant at Qvest, the discussion centered on a critical issue affecting women's career progression. Inspired by research indicating that women are 20% less likely to receive actionable feedback tied to their performance, the event explored how this lack of direct, constructive feedback can hinder women's promotions and professional growth. The conversation featured insights from three female executives: Renee McGinnis from Lionsgate, Michelle Huynh from Netflix, and Vanessa Fiola from Quest, who also moderated the session. The panel addressed the dual role women often play as both recipients and providers of feedback in the workplace, emphasizing the need for feedback that aligns with company goals and personal achievements to truly support women's advancement in their careers. The session aimed to shed light on these challenges and explore effective strategies to empower women through meaningful feedback and recognition in professional settings.
