In an upcoming Journal of Corporate Recruiting Leadership article, Darren Shearer, a senior research consultant at SuccessFactors, compares male-to-female ratios at the staff level to male-to-female ratios at the executive level, showing a marked difference.

Leanne Chase
On the line, in addition to Shearer and myself, are Leanne Chase, of Career Life Connection, and Jennifer McClure of Unbridled Talent.
