It’s not a secret that women are underrepresented in the c-suite. There are many reasons for this, including the lack of female role models and the perceptions about women and what they bring to the table. But there is another reason why we don’t see more women in the c- suite that is related to the individual. That is, that they tend to doubt their individual abilities.

If you're a woman in a male-dominated field, and you’ve been asking yourself, "Why is it so hard to get a promotion?" Or even, "Why is it that so few women are promoted to the highest levels in my field, industry, or company?” This episode is for you. 

According to research, only 17% of C-suite executives at large companies are women. This is a huge problem, because women are underrepresented in senior roles and the pipeline to senior leadership positions is often the first barrier to entry for women. While there are many reasons why women are underrepresented in senior roles, one of the most important factors is that they are not being offered the same opportunities as their male counterparts. When women are not given equal opportunities, they are less likely to be hired, promoted, paid what they’re worth, or given opportunities to advance in their careers. 

Listen in to today’s episode, while Dr. Sanchez shares important insights regarding women’s advancement and discusses the Next Level Promotional Readiness Assessment that she created to help executive women identify where they are in the promotional hierarchy. You’ll learn the secrets to helping you to crack the code to next level influence and promotion so that you can lead and succeed in the C-suite.
