#Boardroom101: Breaking the glass ceiling
The glass ceiling affects anyone who is a minority in their work environment, including women in a male-dominated arena, employees where one race group dominates the space, and so forth.
Listen to the podcast or read the details below:
Not all women believe in the existence of a glass ceiling and invariably, it is these women who simply glide through it and get to the top. The glass ceiling is an enigma to some, and a reality to others.
Women who do not perceive a glass ceiling see no gender-related barriers to their career growth. They focus on the dream of getting to the top, not on the barriers. To them, the message is simple: the glass ceiling can be broken!
