Yes We Can, But How? Women’s Representation in Global Business

Abstract

Prior research has shown that improving gender equality in the workplace would provide multiple benefits for organizations across sectors and borders. However, despite much work on this goal, women remain woefully underrepresented in the upper echelons of organizations around the world. The problem is that organizations want the benefits that greater gender diversity brings; many are actively trying to achieve those benefits; but they are falling short. This paper investigates this issue and provides several policy suggestions to help organizations better harness the benefits that women can bring across the globe.
