Description

However, this revolution has not resulted in increases in women's participation at the top levels of corporations. Few women are CEOs of large organizations and few women occupy seats on the boards of directors of private sector organizations. The existence of a "glass ceiling" artificially limiting women's advancement appears to be a worldwide phenomenon. Increasing amounts of research and writing have focused on the glass ceiling, why it exists, why it has been so difficult to eliminate it and what companies and governments are undertaking to support women's advancement.
