McKinsey research suggests some answers.<\/h2>\n<p>The progress of women\u00a0toward the upper echelons of business, government, and academia continues to provoke media attention and lively debate. Look, for instance, at the coverage of Marissa Mayer\u2019s July appointment as CEO of Yahoo! and the diverse reactions to an article (\u201cWhy women still can\u2019t have it all\u201d) published in the July\/August issue of the\u00a0<em>Atlantic<\/em>\u00a0magazine.<\/p>\n<p>Coincidentally, this summer also marked the moment when we released the latest phase of a global research initiative on women in senior management across Asia, Europe, and North America. This effort involved assembling fresh data on the gender composition of boards, executive committees, and talent pipelines, as well as detailed surveys of leading businesses in each region.<\/p>\n<p>Encouragingly, the research shows that a growing number of women, both in senior roles and among the rank and file, are finding their voices and inspiring others to achieve progress. It also demonstrates that more companies are enjoying the benefits of gender diversity and that some have found ways to boost the representation of women at the highest levels of their organizations. From an admittedly low base, for instance, more women sit on European corporate boards (though not executive committees) than did so five years ago. Countries with a clear political commitment to change, in the form of specific quotas or targets, are achieving significant results. Several major corporations are emerging as inspirational role models.<\/p>\n<p>Yet while the vast majority of organizations in developed economies are striving to unlock the potential of women in the workforce, many executives remain frustrated that they have not made more immediate and substantial progress. Firmly entrenched barriers continue to hinder the progress of high-potential women: many of those who start out with high ambitions, for instance, leave for greener pastures, settle for less demanding staff roles, or simply opt out of the workforce. In Asia, cultural attitudes toward child care and household tasks further complicate the challenges for corporate pioneers. And everywhere we look, despite numerous gender diversity initiatives, too few women reach the executive committee, and too few boards have more than a token number of women.<\/p>\n<p>Our research also offered some clues about the characteristics of companies that make the greatest advances in gender diversity. Much depends on the stage of the journey companies have reached. The regional and cultural context matters, too. Still, we were struck by the global applicability of some core principles. Across geographies, we find that a wholly committed senior leadership, active talent management, and more effective efforts to shift mind-sets and change behavior can transform the gender agenda (see sidebar, \u2018We\u2019re at a tipping point\u2019).<\/p>\n<h5>Global challenges<\/h5>\n<p>Women hold 15 percent of the seats on corporate boards and 14 percent of those on executive committees in the United States; 16 percent and 3 percent, respectively, in Germany; 20 percent and 8 percent, respectively, in France; and less than 10 percent on both boards and executive committees in China, India, and Japan. In Scandinavia, the numbers are higher: Norway\u2019s representation is currently at 35 percent and 15 percent, respectively; Sweden\u2019s at 25 percent and 21 percent, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>The representation of women in all regions, moreover, diminishes markedly at each higher management level. Some female executives, of course, leak out of the talent pipeline because they are headed for other or better jobs; others voluntarily draw back from promotions as part of conscious work\u2013life decisions. But a significant number run into a succession of seemingly immovable barriers at key career intersections.<\/p>\n<p>We have long noted the combination of structural obstacles, lifestyle choices, and institutional and individual mind-sets that hinder the advancement of women. But only recently have we started to understand how deeply entwined they are. Men and women tend to be evenly distributed across line and staff roles early in their careers, for example, but women begin a steady and disproportionate shift into staff roles by the time they reach the director level. Lacking the sorts of networks that come more easily to men, many women miss out on discussions with sponsors who might encourage them to stay in the line. Line jobs tend to involve more pressure and less flexibility\u2014less appealing to women forming families or opting for greater control over their lives. Some male executives, with good intent, do not even ask mothers to consider line assignments that involve travel and long hours.<\/p>\n<p>Natural advantages or disadvantages do characterize some sectors, but the situation varies markedly even within them, and contradictions abound. In European financial services, for instance, the rate of attrition is particularly severe by the time women reach middle management. In contrast, our research indicated that some of the top US gender diversity performers were in financial services.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Asia stands out. The relatively low overall rate of female labor force participation in many Asian countries\u2014though not all of them, for China is a notable exception\u2014means that it is harder to fill the pipeline at the outset. Next, the double burden of Asia\u2019s working women, who must juggle families and jobs, is not only reinforced by cultural factors but also compounded by a lack of government support in areas such as childcare. In many markets, women wait until their children are older before returning to work or (in Taiwan, for example) drop out in their late 20s never to return. Exacerbating matters in much of Asia is an absence of urgency to change the equation. In our recent survey of the region\u2019s senior executives, just 30 percent of respondents said that gender diversity was currently a top priority for their corporations, and only a third saw it as being one of the top ten priorities on the corporate agenda in coming years.<\/p>\n<h5>From good to great<\/h5>\n<p>These challenges persist at a time when many companies, particularly in North America and Europe, are pursuing an arsenal of measures aimed at easing women\u2019s progress through the organization. Such measures include efforts to make appraisals objective and unbiased; the adoption of diversity targets; greater flexibility in remote working; smoother transitions before, during, and after maternity leave; and executive coaching for high-potential vice presidents. Of the 235 European companies we surveyed recently, for instance, more than 60 percent told us they have at least 20 gender diversity initiatives in place.<\/p>\n<p>Motivations vary. A number of studies find a correlation between high-performing companies and those with strong female representation at the top,<a name=\"footnote3up\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mckinseyquarterly.com\/The_global_gender_agenda_3027#footnote3\"><\/a><sup>3<\/sup>\u00a0though correlation does not prove causality. Many CEOs are convinced that mixed boards and mixed executive teams perform better than those dominated by men. As one corporate leader put it, just about every company wants to \u201cget the best brains to work on the problem.\u201d That said, successfully transforming gender attitudes and performance requires much greater leadership attention and dedication than even committed CEOs and top teams are currently giving to it. These goals also call for integrated management and monitoring of women in the talent pipeline from early on to the point when they become eligible to join the C-suite and for intervention to shift widely held beliefs holding back talented women.<\/p>\n<h5>Leadership \u2018obsession\u2019<\/h5>\n<p>Every major cultural, operational, or strategic change in a business requires personal passion, \u201cskin in the game,\u201d and role modeling from senior leaders, and gender diversity is no exception. When a CEO is the chief advocate and \u201cstoryteller,\u201d more people (including the often less committed male middle managers) believe that the story matters and begin to adopt the CEO\u2019s mind-set and behavior. Intensely committed CEOs make their goals clear and specific, tell everyone about them, get other leaders involved, and manage talent to help make things happen. CEOs who do not see gender diversity as a top issue fold \u201cgender\u201d into \u201cdiversity\u201d and \u201cdiversity\u201d into \u201ctalent,\u201d thereby losing focus as leadership of initiatives is delegated to others further down the line. CEOs who champion gender diversity, for example, participate in women\u2019s events and multiday talent discussions; less committed CEOs introduce them and leave, inadvertently signaling that other priorities take precedence.<\/p>\n<p>In Europe, many executives tell us that the momentum for change took hold only when the top team made its commitment visible\u2014for example, by appointing women to senior positions or taking measures to ensure that they were considered for certain jobs. Sponsorship is (and always has been) a critical part of an executive\u2019s path to the top. HR leaders tell us that these relationships are hard to institutionalize and that formal programs have mixed success. But we find it significant that one company did much better when the CEO and the diversity leader personally took charge of the sponsorship program, selected a group of high-potential women, and invited them to spend significant time with the top team. Women in the program really got to know the CEO and senior-team members, and vice versa, and most have since moved up the management ladder.<\/p>\n<h5>Managing\u2014and cultivating\u2014the pipeline<\/h5>\n<p>McKinsey\u2019s more general work on transforming the performance of companies shows that those with a clear understanding of their starting point are more than twice as likely to succeed as those that are less well prepared.<a name=\"footnote4up\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mckinseyquarterly.com\/The_global_gender_agenda_3027#footnote4\"><\/a><sup>4<\/sup>\u00a0In a gender diversity context, this understanding means knowing the gender balance at every level of the organization; comprehending the numbers by level, function, business unit, and region; and then monitoring metrics such as pay levels, attrition rates, reasons women drop out, and the ratio between women promoted and women eligible for promotion.<\/p>\n<p>Why go to this expense? Establishing the facts is the first step toward awareness, understanding, and dedication to improvement. Using a diagnostic tool, one company simulated how much hiring, promoting, and retaining of women it would require to increase the number of senior women managers. That approach helped it set an achievable and, just as important, sustainable target that would not compromise a highly meritocratic corporate culture. With an overall target\u2014that 25 percent of managing directors and directors should be women by 2018\u2014and a clear understanding that the bar for promotion could not be lowered, managers now look harder for high-potential women and start working with them earlier to develop that potential.<\/p>\n<p>Incentives tied to managers\u2019 bonuses can help, though some companies fear that targets may undermine the credibility of women at the top. Those in favor of such targets believe that a radical mandate is required for substantial change and worth the backlash from women who ascended \u201cthe hard way.\u201d Where targets are rejected, other mechanisms \u201cwith teeth\u201d are necessary\u2014almost all the top US performers on gender diversity have goals, if not targets. In Europe, we identified a gap between the measures companies now have in place and how carefully these companies apply and monitor them. Some have targets for women in senior positions, for example, but no plans for implementation; others have targets and plans but fail to communicate them. Companies with cultures inimical to top-down diktats should consider adopting a regular report that candidly evaluates progress and prompts senior management to brainstorm for new ideas.<\/p>\n<h5>Shifting mind-sets and behavior<\/h5>\n<p>Leaders with the best of intentions may still fall short unless they can change the way they and their organizations think. So if, for example, the prevailing view is that truly committed executives work 24\/7 and travel at the drop of a hat, many talented women will turn their backs on further advancement. Such prevailing attitudes are hard to shift: in our experience, that can be done only by role models who challenge them through their actions and by a learning environment that cultivates self-awareness. More women at the top should help, though of course women can be as responsible as men for promoting a culture of nonstop work.<\/p>\n<p>The top performers on gender diversity value and promote inclusiveness. Their leaders firmly believe that mutual respect drives better customer service and hence sales. When such beliefs take hold, they are powerful. One global cosmetics company we know, which operates in 88 countries and has a customer base that\u2019s 90 percent female, now cites gender diversity as one of its key strengths. Another consumer-based business, headquartered in Europe, makes mostly products for men but learned through research that women usually make the buying decision. Increasingly, the company looks to female employees to refine its marketing and product-development approach.<\/p>\n<p>Certain institutional biases are subtle\u2014for example, a reluctance on the part of men to give women the tough feedback everyone needs on their way to the top. Many men, fearing that sponsoring women might seem inappropriate, find it difficult to do so. Most people feel more comfortable promoting those who behave and think as they do. A willingness to question can make a difference. When one company discovered, through an audit of its recruiting processes, that recruiters were more critical of female than male candidates, it devised a training course for the critics. One of them was asked to lead a session and has since become among the company\u2019s most vocal supporters of diversity and inclusion.<\/p>\n<p>The mind-sets\u2014and aspirations\u2014of women themselves are as important as those of the companies that employ them. Interviews with 200 successful middle-management and more senior women in 60 large companies across the United States highlighted some common threads: early career acceleration coupled with significant sponsorship, a willingness to change employers to gain greater opportunities, and a propensity to stay in line jobs for much of their advancement. These women remained optimistic even in the face of significant challenges.<\/p>\n<p>Early-tenure women want to move to the next level as much as men do. Yet we found that only 18 percent of entry- and midlevel women have a long-term eye on the C suite, against 36 percent of men. That finding reinforces our belief that inspirational leaders should intervene with talented female middle managers to discuss their aspirations, build their confidence, embolden them to aim higher, and seek ways to make line roles more palatable for them. In particular, we would emphasize the need for women\u2019s leadership-development programs to focus on personal mastery of thoughts, feelings, and actions and thus to make women accountable for their own future.<a name=\"footnote5up\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mckinseyquarterly.com\/The_global_gender_agenda_3027#footnote5\"><\/a><sup>5<\/sup>\u00a0In the average Fortune 500 company, a 10 percent boost in the odds that women will advance from manager to director and then to vice president would yield an additional 90 female executives, including five senior vice presidents and one member of the executive committee.<\/p>\n<h5>Four priorities for committed leaders<\/h5>\n<p>The widespread applicability of the principles above suggests a short list of actions that should be on every committed leader\u2019s priority list:<\/p>\n<p>1. Treat gender diversity like any other strategic business initiative,\u00a0with a goal and a plan that your company monitors and follows up at the highest levels over many years. Build in a \u201creport or explain\u201d process and articulate a well-supported point of view on the value women bring to your organization and the case for or against explicit targets. If greater representation of women in the talent pipeline promises a competitive advantage, successful leaders will work hard to include them. If greater female representation better serves the company\u2019s customers, those leaders will make that happen.<\/p>\n<p>2. Ask for\u2014and talk about\u2014the data,\u00a0sliced and diced to identify \u2018pain points\u2019 in the pipeline by business, geography, and function. Go well beyond measuring success by the number of women at the top. Discuss the percentage of talented women at each stage of the pipeline, their odds of advancement versus men\u2019s, and the mix of women between line and staff jobs compared with that of their male counterparts. Make sure your entire top team and those who report to its members are accountable for the numbers, and brainstorm about what it will take to improve them.<\/p>\n<p>3. Establish a culture of sponsorship,\u00a0encouraging each top executive to sponsor two to three future leaders, including women. Instill a mind-set of \u201cpaying it forward,\u201d so that every woman sponsored will in turn sponsor two or three others. Embed effective sponsorship of women into the profile of successful leaders at your company and raise the issue in performance dialogues with your own direct reports. Show your wider commitment by talking with top female talent when you visit regional divisions and business units or participate in external events.<\/p>\n<p>4. Raise awareness of what a diverse work environment looks like,\u00a0celebrating successes to reinforce the mind-set shifts you desire. Use frequent personal blogs, top-team meetings, and town hall gatherings to communicate what you are doing to drive change. To increase awareness of the new mind-sets, question your own personnel choices, and think about whom you tend to work with and why. Top executives who work hard to encourage diversity of thought across a company will increase everyone\u2019s determination to bring the best to work\u2014ending up not only with what they set out to achieve but with even more: an engaged community that corrects itself when things go off track.<\/p>\n<p>A wide range of global companies made real advances in gender diversity over the past five years. They know that this is hard work\u2014a journey measured in years rather than months. But they also know that improving the pipeline of female talent is possible, with rewards that include tapping the best brains, improving customer service, increasing employee engagement, and everything that comes with these benefits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Women continue to be underrepresented at senior-management levels in Asia, Europe, and North America.
