More women are taking top management jobs but inequality persists, with men still dominating business leadership roles, research showed ahead of International Women’s Day on March 8.
Despite some high-profile exceptions and laws helping to boost quotas for women board members and executives, it remains a slow march to the top.
A survey published last week by Equileap, which researches data on diversity, found only seven percent of CEOs and 17 percent of finance directors in big companies in developed countries were women.
“The battle for gender equality remains ongoing,” said Equileap’s CEO Diana van Maasdijk.
