Résumé ou Introduction
Leaders are powerful, so when women are excluded from top leadership positions, they are denied power to make a difference in the world. This paper thus aims to discuss the many challenges women nowadays face in taking leadership positions, including barriers related to stereotypes, cultural expectations and the choice between work and family.
The lack of women in top management positions, which can be felt all across the world, pertains to one of the biggest economic challenges our fast growing international economy needs to face. Leadership is regarded as one of the most studied issues of our times: countless books and articles discuss theories and the nature of the problem. Even when there have been several attempts in the past trying to overcome the gender gap, and even when women have already made progress in leadership positions, the gender gap continues to be a prevalent issue.
