Women in leadership refers to the presence and influence of women in positions of authority and decision-making across various sectors, including business, politics, and community organizations. Increasingly, research shows that diverse leadership teams, which include women, can lead to better organizational performance and innovation. Despite progress, women remain underrepresented in leadership roles globally. Barriers such as gender bias, lack of mentorship, and work-life balance challenges continue to hinder their advancement. Initiatives aimed at promoting gender equality, such as women's leadership programs and diversity policies, are essential for creating more inclusive environments where women can thrive as leaders.
