Leadership and entrepreneurship both have gender connotations. Business continues to operate within a male hierarchical model making it difficult for women to reach the pinnacle of top business positions. Women who have broken through the so‐called glass ceiling to achieve senior management positions, or who have spearheaded innovative businesses have often felt the need to adapt a more masculine persona in order to do so. The female business executive who arrives in the boardroom suitably “suited and booted” only weeks after giving birth, or the entrepreneur who relinquishes a collaborative team working approach to push her new product into the limelight demonstrate the adoption of a masculine model of success.
The paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world's leading organizations.
The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy‐to digest format.
