A sweeping new study finds not a 'glass ceiling' that is keeping women from the top – but a 'broken rung' on the corporate ladder.
A sweeping new study that looked at 329 companies employing 13 million people found that women in the workplace have come a long way in recent years -- but it's not a"glass ceiling" that is keeping women from the top, but a"broken rung" on the corporate ladder.
"For me, the biggest takeaway is that we’ve long thought that the glass ceiling was the problem, that there is this invisible barrier on top of the pipeline that prevents people from rising to leadership," LeanIn.org’s co-founder and CEO, Rachel Thomas, told ABC News."It's really at that first step up into management, that broken rung."
"One thing that's interesting is how many companies don't realize that it's an issue," Krivkovich added."You can't solve the problem until you first recognize that it is one." "Women face real headwinds in their advancement," Krivkovich said."While women demonstrate similar levels of ambition, they have very different day-to-day experiences."
