The term 'glass escalator' refers to the finding that men in female-dominated occupations often experience a faster and smoother rise to the upper levels of leadership than women.
Because of stereotypes and incorrect assumptions, even in fields with qualified women, men are singled out and fast-tracked to leadership roles.
Systemic power dynamics and gender stereotypes persist across industries, contributing to the male advantage in leadership advancement.
