In corporate Canada you see this scenario play out all the time: Highly qualified and ambitious women enter the workforce all charged up and ready to change the world, only to be disappointed as they watch male colleagues pass them on the climb up the corporate ladder. Then the women drop out. It’s no surprise, then, that women today occupy only 10% of the highest-paying jobs in corporate Canada. That’s not a very impressive statistic after all the effort to increase the number of women in corporate leadership. What’s the problem? The authorsof this book, a former CEO and an accomplished academic, argue that women are held back by a series of invisible rules that tilt the playing field in favour of white men. They back up their case with deep interviews with 50 senior female Canadian executives who talk about the real- life challenges in the C-Suite and on the way up.This book aims to expose these hidden rules and show ambitious women how they can get ahead – and how executives, particularly men, can level the playing field in the future.
