Women are Change Agents: Breaking the Glass Ceiling

OLLMOO is about to turn two and we are excited by the positive changes that we are witnessing in the workplace, especially when women lead. To this effect; it is important to have strategies in place to help advance more women in leadership.
Women are Change Agents: Breaking the Glass Ceiling
The Glass Ceiling: “an unacknowledged barrier to advancement in a profession, especially affecting women and members of minorities.”

Much can be said about the historical views regarding women in leadership. These gender stereotypes and disparities are often stifling, and hinder the advancement of women in leadership today. But in 2024, we should stop dwelling on these archaic and non-progressive points of view and start sharing more about the positive changes that we are seeing in the workplace, especially when women lead.

Based on research by the American Psychological Association, it has been found that women are more likely to embody an organisations values and are therefore more likely to inspire co-workers to subscribe to their organisation’s mission, as opposed to men. In other words, women demonstrate more transformational leadership styles. Being able to bring about change within a business is a key skill needed to allow greater flexibility, adaptability and ultimately growth within the workplace.

Women are powerful agents of change.

It is important to have strategies in place to help advance more women in leadership. Key aspects include:

  1. Identifying potential women leaders early
  2. Establishing mentorship and sponsorship programmes
  3. Providing support through women’s organisations
  4. Focusing on allyship
