[HIGHLIGHTS] The female power of the local councils in Israel: only 55 female directors general in local government - voila! local

Out of 256 municipalities in Israel, 20% of them elected a woman CEO. Only 14 women were elected mayors and councillors.

There are still zero female directors in government offices. The conference of the Association of CEOs and Secretaries in Local Authorities is taking place on June 4-7 in Eilat. We met for a personal interview with leading CEOs from cities and towns in Israel. The more diverse the decision-making table, the better decisions are made, says Dafna Kiro Cohen, CEO of Ness Ziona Municipality.
