WOMEN IN CORPORATE MANAGEMENT: VIEWS OF CANADIAN CEOs

Abstract

Reports a survey of Canadian male CEOs′ views on women in corporate management. The results show ambivalence – which may capture current corporate reality. Most CEOs recognized what barriers there were to women advancing and how they could be tackled‐agreeing too, that much of this was under CEO control. A number were unaware of demographic change in the workforce or of the existence of barriers – those seen were identified as difficult to address. Recommends new steps to be taken.
