Workplace culture, and lack of trust = Wasted talent!

The workplace culture that is holding women back - Technology Industry News | Market & Trends | The Irish Times - Thu, Nov 14, 2013: "Girls here outperform boys in school and in Ireland, as in many other countries, more women take undergraduate university degrees than men. This has been the case for more than a decade of CSO statistics (in 2011, 53 per cent of third-level graduates were women, while 39 per cent were men). In the US, more women than men also take master’s and PhD degrees.
Yet year after year, women remain poorly represented at senior levels in companies and participate to a lesser degree than men in the workforce. In 2011, 46.7 per cent of Irish women worked –
a considerable fall below the 60 per cent level the EU set as a target for 2010. (That said, Ireland did meet the 60 per cent marker in the final boom years of 2007
and 2008, but not since.)"
