In today's corporate world, women account for just 23% of the total number of women executives around the world. This percentage reduces even further to 20% when you consider women appointed as board members.

There's a cultural perception that women are not as capable as men when it comes to math and business. This is why it's so important for companies to promote diversity and inclusion, and to create an environment in which women can feel comfortable speaking up and asking for what they need.

So why are fewer women in the corporate world?

One reason is that the number of women in the corporate world who are promotable is decreasing. Results of a study found that only 36% of women in the corporate world are promotable.

This means that only 36% of women in the corporate world have the qualities that their company is looking for in a new hire.

Another reason is that the number of women in the corporate world who are in leadership positions is decreasing.

So what can be done to increase the number of women in the corporate world?

  • We can make sure that we're hiring the right kind of people by looking at our recruitment practices and making sure that we're attracting a diverse range of candidates.
  • We can also make sure that we're promoting the right people by looking at our performance management processes and making sure that we're identifying and rewarding high-performing employees.
  • The number of women in leadership positions should increase. This can be done by ensuring that women are given the opportunity to lead and that they are offered all the support they need to meet with success.
  • We need to make sure that more women are in management positions in the corporate world. This can be done by ensuring that the company is hiring managers who are female, and that the managers are being given all the help they need on the road to success.
  • The number of women in technical positions must increase in the corporate world. This can be done by ensuring that the company is hiring people who are female, and that the people who are in technical positions are being given the training they need to be successful.
  • For example, Tricia Griffith is known for her innovativeness and willingness to speak with complete honesty about the challenges faced by women in the corporate world. The company recognized her talents and in just two years, Fortune magazine named her Businessperson of the year.

In short, we need to make sure that the number of women in the corporate world is increasing at all levels. This can be done by ensuring that the company is hiring the right people, that the company is promoting the right people, and that the company is giving women the opportunity to lead.
