P&L LEADERSHIP

Profit & Loss (P&L) responsibility is undoubtedly one of the essential duties of any executive role. It involves monitoring net income after expenses for a department or an entire organization and demands a delicate balance between revenue optimization and expense control. Fewer than 10% of the most senior P&L leaders in the Fortune 500 are Black. A key factor is the lack of P&L experience which is often the barrier to breaking the glass ceiling.
