- Women occupancy in leadership positionsMuñoz Delgado, Denisse (Universidad La Salle México, Facultad de Negocios, 2020)In recent years, the participation of women in leadership roles throughout the world has increased considerably. However, it is not representative if we compare it with the participation of men. By surveying current leaders from top companies in Mexico, this research explored the scarce occupation of women in leadership roles around the world, trying to identify the main causes that affect women from achieving high leadership positions, as well as to analyze the importance for companies to implement initiatives that reverse this trend. The results indicate that both females and males see the main problem in Payment differences and Gender stereotypes. There is no negative perception about the inequality in hiring process itself. So, to improve the presence of women in leadership positions, the leaders propose creating Pay equality policies and better Training and development programs.
