While women remain underrepresented in leadership roles, they’ve made incredible inroads in the past decade. During the pandemic, I wrote a book about women’s leadership and why it matters. I explored the progress women have made in securing leadership roles since the 1970s, as well as why they continue to face obstacles on their way to the top. Since the book’s publication, women across the United States and globally have reached out to share accounts of their leadership journeys—and ongoing challenges—with me. Lately, these conversations have highlighted how women’s greatest leadership qualities will play a key role in guiding organizations and entire sectors through the uncertain times ahead.
