Webinar Announcement: Exploring Women's Exit from Management Positions

And-L Inc., headquartered in Shibuya, Tokyo, is set to host a free online webinar titled "Why Do Women Candidates for Management Positions Leave? Three Solutions to Prevent Their Departure Based on Voices from Our Consultation Center." This event will take place on September 10, 2026, from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM JST. Interested individuals can register through the following link: Register Here.

Background of the Event

To increase the representation of women in management roles, companies must not only focus on recruitment and promotion strategies but also create an environment where potential female leaders can thrive. Despite having supportive policies and understanding supervisors, many women have chosen to leave their jobs due to health issues or treatment needs.

Based on insights gathered from our health support service "And-L Work," the "And-L Consultation Room" has fielded numerous inquiries from female employees regarding their health and work-life balance. Common concerns include unique health challenges faced by women, uncertainty regarding treatment outcomes, confusion over what information to disclose to their employers, and even the decision to resign already having been made before reaching out for help. Such issues are complex and cannot be easily addressed by policies alone.

This webinar will delve into the experiences of women candidates for management positions who have left their jobs, sharing valuable insights from their journeys. We will discuss how individuals can gain a clearer understanding of their health status, have realistic expectations about treatment and work arrangements, and organize their options before making significant decisions about their careers. Furthermore, we will highlight specific support measures that companies should implement to assist these women effectively.
