Mentorship: A Game Changer for Women聽
Abstract
Statistics demonstrate that the percentage of women entering the workforce continues to rise each year but that only 35% of women in the workforce hold a senior leadership role and continue to be underrepresented in the highest ranking senior executive positions (the C-Suite) with only 20% occupying a C-Suite position, and only 4% of them being women of color. Moreover, women continue to be paid less earning eighty-two cents for every dollar earned by their male counterparts.聽This paper discusses how woman-to-woman mentorship can be the necessary game changer in which time and energy should be invested.
