Women account for more than half of the world’s population – a little more than half in the United States. Yet they still make up far less than half of leadership roles…despite getting higher education degrees far more than men.
Why? That’s what guests Lisa DeFrank-Cole and Sherylle Tan unpack. In this episode, they explore how women’s career journeys are different than men’s, why women have “nontraditional” career paths, and why women experience leadership development in ways men don’t.
Here’s what Lisa, Sherylle, and host Maureen Metcalf discuss:
- Why it’s so important – now more than ever — to look at women and leadership;
- What makes women’s leadership journeys different from men’s; and
- Why personal stories are just as critical as academic research in revealing the truths about women and leadership.
