Description:

For Women’s History Month, the state of women in the workforce in Colorado. Even as the state ranks relatively strong for female entrepreneurship, new data shows persistent pay gaps, workforce losses and barriers for growth. We talk with Colorado Women’s Chamber of Commerce CEO, Simone Ross, about what’s driving the trends and what the chamber says employers must do now to help retain and advance women in the workplace. Then, Louise Myrland with the Women's Foundation of Colorado discusses a statewide report on pay inequity that shows women in Colorado earn 81 cents for every dollar earned by men. And we revisit how to be a "changemaker" with CEO and Denver author Danaya Wilson.
