From the black gowns at the Golden Globes representing Times Up to Kesha's powerful performance at the Grammys, we're certainly in a new era of female leadership and it's not only being felt in Hollywood.

Davis talks about how businesses can evaluate their workplace and take note of inequalities. They need to be conscious of gender pay gaps, the number of women in leadership roles and the culture. A big recruiting tool large corporations can use is a positive culture within the company.
