Even though more and more women succeed in their willingness to rise to the top, they still have to deal with a lot of labeling, disrespect and men undermining their authority. No wonder women feel insecure! They start to doubt their own capacities and create all by themselves a psychological glass-ceiling.
Besides the usual challenges that come along with a top function, women seem to be struggling with social capital. Networking is indispensable, however it appears to be easier for men than for women.
Furthermore, women dedicate a lot of time to avoiding conflicts. Men find it hard to take orders from a female, forcing female leaders to calculate every single move, trying to earn the respect they absolutely deserve.
