Leadership Development for Women
Women in business are a powerful force. As executives, entrepreneurs, and leaders, women have brought their unique perspectives to the table and proven to be highly successful in these roles. Regardless of their opportunities and roles being limited, women have been involved with business in many capacities for centuries. Women began to enter the workforce in large numbers in the early 20th century. During World War II, they were encouraged to enter the workforce in order to fill the labor shortage that was left by men who were serving in the war. Although there were significant gains, it was not until the second half of the 20th century that women began to break down substantial barriers and receive greater access to leadership positions. Women are now a part of every division of the economy, making notable contributions all around the world.
Despite the advancements of female leadership over the years, women continue to face numerous challenges in leadership positions, including gender stereotypes, bias, and underrepresentation.
