Ampliship: Institutionalizing Visible Advocacy to Repair the Broken Rung

Ampliship addresses the Broken Rung by changing workplace norms around recognition and sponsorship. Developed in response to persistent cultural bias/ invisible advocacy, Ampliship institutionalizes visible amplification - training young women, allies, and employers to publicly credit women's ideas, achievements, and leadership. Embedded across GWI's programs/employer partnerships, Ampliship works to establish amplification as a workplace practice that increases women's credibility, retention, and early promotion outcomes. The model can be adopted across programs/ workplaces, positioning it to reach millions.
