ABOUT THE AACGS

The American Association of Corporate Gender Strategists was founded in 2018 to address a growing interest in working in the field, and to solidify a standard, research-based approach to solving work/gender issues.

We are a professional organization of corporate gender strategists, from aspiring and emerging to experienced. We help companies make real progress on recruiting, retention, culture, and the advancement of women by equipping individuals to confidently lead this work and by providing resources (such as best practices, research-backed tools, consulting, and training partners).
