Why The World Needs More Women In Leadership

Women's leadership as a sub-theme in management is rising. Women leaders defeat many workplace barriers caused by gender biases and are transformational role models. Their challenging journey to the top allows them to develop themselves remarkably. This leaves less room for anyone to challenge the need for more women in leadership.

But that's not the only reason women leaders should be on the rise. While the world is being launched into the fifth industrial revolution, seven global tech revolutions (AI, VR/XR, AVs, quantum computing, blockchain, IoT and 3-D printing) are taking place, all requiring characteristics women leaders naturally bring.

The need for more women in leadership also comes down to ethical decision-making, like not outsourcing environmental disasters to communities whose leaders don't protect them. Companies with more women on the board have proven to make more ethical decisions.
