Caesars working toward equal gender representation in leadership

Caesars Entertainment Corp.’s three Atlantic City properties are hoping to increase women’s roles in leadership through an organizational initiative geared toward equal gender representation. The Gender Equity Initiative, which was launched in 2017 in partnership with the Billie Jean King Leadership Initiative, was created to increase representation of women in leadership roles and above by 2025. Among the company’s U.S. markets, 43 percent of manager and above roles are held by women.

“Caesars’ Atlantic City resorts — Bally’s, Caesars and Harrah’s Resort — are currently ahead of the national average in terms of gender equity, with 40 percent of our female employees in manager roles and above,” said Karie Hall, vice president and general manager for Harrah’s Resort. “From areas like food and beverage to marketing, finance and casino operations, we are seeing more female team member representation overall and especially in leadership roles here.”
