Descripció:The inequality in genre has been studied from many scopes, nevertheless it is little the work carried out to find the obstacles that prevent women from obtaining managerial positions. In the United States, for example, a research found that during 2005, women received wages 85% inferior in comparison to those received by men in similar positions and occupied only 40% of the managerial positions (Eagly, A. et al. 2007). As one looks up in the organizational authority scale, the percentages fall; for example, the percentage of CEO’s women in the United States does not surpass 2%. In Europe the situation is not very different: only 4% of the CEO’s and 11% of the executives of high level are women. There is a persistent wage discrimination that is added to slowness whereby women with qualifications equivalent to those of men, are promoted. This work summarizes some of the reasons for which women find obstacles in reaching high managerial positions.
