| Résumé : | Women have made many gains in access to education, and it follows that they have increased access to employment. Today, a third of the world’s enterprises are run by women, and their management skills are increasingly recognized as well. There is more and more evidence that achieving gender balanced and diverse management teams at all levels in the hierarchy produces positive business outcomes. Yet age-old gender stereotypes still overshadow women’s contribution to businesses. Top of the list of stereotypes across all social and cultural contexts is their ability to balance work and family responsibilities. Women business owners are mostly concentrated in small and micro businesses. Still less than 5 per cent of CEOs of the largest global corporations are women. The higher up the corporate ladder and the larger the organization, the fewer the women. The “glass ceiling” is still intact. Women are succeeding as high-level administrators, human resources and public relations managers. But “glass walls” prevent them taking up strategic management positions leading to the top. Companies are losing out on women’s contribution to their bottom line. Women in Business and Management: Gaining Momentum brings together all available data including ILO statistics to provide a comprehensive, up-to-date and global picture on women in the business world and in management positions. It highlights not only the obstacles women still face but also the business case for gender diversity and offers recommendations on the way forward.(source: report) |
