The Nordic DEI Paradox - Not so Paradoxical?

Margret, our co-founder, Dr. Marie Louise Sunde, Founder and CEO of Equality Check, and Tuula Rytila, Corporate Vice President at Microsoft Digital Stores had an inspiring discussion on a panel on gender equity at the Nordic Innovation Summit two weeks ago. The panel was called "The Scandinavian DEI Paradox—Not So Paradoxical?" referring to the fact that while the Nordics consistently score at the top of every equality scale, women are still underrepresented on boards and in top management.

These include providing the pay range to applicants on request and a prohibition against asking for salary history. The law also protects employees’ rights to discuss their pay.
