Overview

Despite the progress we have made, women are still faced with discrimination and bias in the workplace every day. The only way to prove our capabilities is to be a great leader! According to the Harvard Business Review, women were rated as more effective leaders than men. Furthermore, out of the 19 leadership competencies, women rated significantly higher in 13 areas. This isn't just in leadership roles that are considered traditionally female. The same difference was seen across different functions including IT, research & development, and manufacturing. So why is it that only 26% of CEOs and managing directors are female? And the bigger question is, why is it that women earn over $40,000 less per year than men who have earned the same qualification? There is no doubt that women have more challenges when it comes to leadership roles. These challenges are hard to overcome, but it's gender bias that causes the biggest problems. Women are either seen as dainty, proper ladies who are too quiet to lead or as the other extreme - bossy, aggressive, and unladylike. Consequently, while women have the qualifications and skills required for a leadership role, it's still the men who are more likely to be offered opportunities. Now, we can talk for days about the glass ceiling and how unfair the gender gap is, without really achieving anything... Or we can do something about it.
