History

[edit]

Founded in 2004 by Canadian investor Jay Rosenzweig, Rosenzweig & Company is a leading[5] global recruitment-search firm headquartered in Toronto with reach in all key business centers including New York, Montreal, Calgary, San Francisco, Los Angeles,[6] Hong Kong, and Mumbai.[7] Members of the firm have been interviewed on television[8] and radio[9] as well as by The Guardian,[10] The New York Times, The National Post,[11] and The Globe and Mail on issues of diversity, executive team building and the future of technology.[12] Hyperloop Transportation Technologies[13] and CryptoSlam[14] are among the company's clients.

Following the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Rosenzweig met with Ukrainian politician Andriy Yermak to discuss support for the country.[15][16] Rosenzweig was an Executive Producer of the Emmy-nominated film, Superpower.[17]

The Rosenzweig Report

[edit]

The firm publishes the annual Rosenzweig Report on Women at the Top Levels of Corporate Canada, first published in 2006.[18][19] The Rosenzweig Report analyzes the prevalence of female executives at the 100 largest publicly traded companies in the country.[20] The publication has been referenced in the annual report of the Status of Women Canada, a federal government organization devoted to the advancement of women in Canadian life, in 2008 and 2009, and has been cited in news coverage around the world.[21][22] The Rosenzweig Report has had contributions from Jesse Draper, Karena Evans, Katie Taylor, Adam Grant, Dikembe Mutombo, and Chrystia Freeland.[23] Based on data from the Rosenzweig Report, Digital Trends detailed gender disparity in the workplace and how to address it.[24]

Sheryl Sandberg, Van Jones, Zainab Salbi, Andrew Yang, Chloe Flower, and Jason Flom contributed to the wide-ranging 2019 report.[25] Inno & Tech Today pointed to the Rosenzweig Report to conclude that "discrimination is alive and well" and that the representation gap between men and women in the technology industry remained wide.[26]
