Women in Leadership and Gender Parity: Is Change Happening Fast Enough? Women in Leadership

The corporate environment is still a challenging one for women -- and especially for women leaders aspiring to executive leadership roles. When respondents to Brandon Hall Group’s 2016 Women in Leadership Study were asked to rate their organizations on gender parity, 12% said they had an equal number of men and women in C-level positions. A major barrier to more senior women leaders is a lack of development opportunities. For instance, 81% of organizations do not offer core women-in-leadership programs focused on critical skills training; 76% do not provide a mentoring program to groom women leaders. This report, based on the survey research and subsequent interviews with seasoned women leaders throughout the world, provides significant insight into the barriers women face and the efforts several organizations are making to improve the situation. It also offers several critical calls to action, along with detailed data.
