Women in Leadership Research: Top 5 Findings

Gender equality has long been a challenge of organizations worldwide, and in spite of awareness efforts and education, a challenging environment still exists for women leaders in the workplace. In Brandon Hall Group's 2016 Women in Leadership Study, only 12% of responding organizations said they are seeing gender parity when it comes to C-level executive roles, even though 97% of respondents say that the interest in having women advance to executive positions, including CEO, has remained the same or increased in the past few years.
