The Gender Pay Gap
The tools you need to bridge the gap
Your Hard Work Discounted

Let’s talk about your paycheck. Not just what’s in it today, but what isn’t.
You show up, you deliver, and you lead. But for most women, the system has a built-in “tax” that starts on day one.
In 2024, the gender pay gap actually widened for the first time in two decades. Women working full-time now earn 81 cents for every dollar paid to a man.
Close Your Pay Gap: The 3-Step Action Plan
The gender pay gap isn’t just a statistic. It’s a career hurdle.
Don’t guess where you stand. We created an action plan to help you understand your position and take the right steps to close the gap.
Find out if you have a pay gap—and learn exactly what you can do about it.
Step 1: Calculate Your Total Compensation
Most professionals only look at their base salary. To find the real gap, you must look at the whole picture.
- The Action: Factor in your salary, bonuses, 401(k) matching, and health benefits.
- The Goal: Get your true Annual Compensation Number.
Step 2: Collect Pay Gap Data
Context is your leverage. You need to know what the industry, the market, and your company pay for your specific impact.
- The Goal: Identify your Market Percentile.
Step 3: Put Your Data Into Action
Research without action is just a spreadsheet. Once you find the gap, you can advocate for yourself.
- The Goal: Close the gap.
