We see promising changes in the number of female leaders both in South Africa and internationally. But at the same time, women are leaving senior roles. Why?
According to findings from the 2022 Women in Business Report published by Grant Thornton, there’s been an increase in the prevalence of women in senior management roles around the globe. The report provides important insights into the results of 10,000 mid-market organisational leaders spanning 29 global economies. Its findings show that, since the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, the disruption to workplace practices and regulations has benefited female employees and managers, making it easier for them to transition into leadership roles.
