What’s the Big Deal About Women?

Women are better executives than men. Yep, I just said it. Now, I’ll back it up!

  • According to Business Insider women rank at 54.5 percent in “Overall Leadership Effectiveness,” with men ranking 51.8 percent.
  • Business Insider, “Overall Female Effectiveness” increases significantly after the age of 40.

Yet…

  • According to Forbes Inc. women currently hold 4.6 percent of Fortune 500 CEO positions and roughly the same percentage of Fortune 1000 CEO positions.

Hmmm…

So why, if women have a higher ranking in “Overall Leadership Effectiveness,” and they get better with age, are there so few women leaders?
