It's Not So Much the Glass-Ceiling as it is the Sticky Floor
Rebecca Shambaugh, in her new book, says it's not that the ceiling for women in business is made of glass, but that the floor is too sticky for women to rise off it.
Her book, IT'S NOT A GLASS CEILING,IT'S A STICKY FLOOR lays out the failures of business that prevent women from moving forward, getting ahead, and competing with their male counterparts in the workplace.
More than one-third of Fortune 500 managers are women and yet they make-up less than five percent of the top executive earners. Sahmbaugh says it's not just that women can't make it up past a certain point in the ranks, it's that most of them can't get off the floor. And they probably expect us to mop it, too.
