Abstract
In more senior positions within management and leadership, the gender gap becomes more pronounced. Chapter 2 delves into the nuanced experiences of women who have taken on high-ranking roles such as CEO or executive; for many, it is a double-edged sword. Women frequently face the need to work harder to prove themselves in leadership roles, competing with preconceived stereotypes and the dominant image of a leader, often associated with men. Furthermore, the scarcity of women in these positions magnifies the scrutiny of their actions. This becomes an even greater obstacle for women of color who experience a combination of gender and racial discrimination, often resulting in even larger disparities in pay and career advancement compared to their white counterparts. Chapter 2 delves into the personal experiences of numerous women in leadership positions, highlighting their shared journey of exerting significant effort to reach their current positions, gain recognition, and demonstrate their individual capabilities. This chapter is excerpted from 'Glass Half-Broken Shattering the Barriers That Still Hold Women Back at Work'.
