Understanding the Labyrinth

Women are more educated, 57% of bachelor degrees, 60% of masters, more then half of Doctorate, but are still underrepresented
  • Human Capital differences
    • Women have less human capital investment in education, training, and work experience than men
    • Women are in the pipeline
    • Women are achieving education higher than men
  • Gender Differences
    • Women underrepresentation in elite leadership positions is a result of differences in leadership style and effectiveness
    • Leadership styles should nit disadvantage women and can even offer a female advantage
  • Prejudice
    • Stereotype that women take care, and men take charge
    • People assign characteristics to groups, or individual members of groups, regardless of the actual variation in characteristics between the members
