Thought Leadership (NSW): The Glass Cliff Phenomenon
While men still hold the majority of leadership positions, during times of organisational crisis it is frequently women who are chosen to fill the top roles. The Glass Cliff phenomenon encapsulates this trend, where women are appointed to precarious leadership positions during times of turmoil. This not only impacts individual women’s careers but also perpetuates gender stereotypes about men and women’s differing leadership capabilities. Consequently, there’s a pressing need to find ways to support women when they are selected for these challenging roles.
Join us as we hear from Gillian Harris – Psychologist, Consultant and Lead researcher on The Glass Cliff as she presents an overview of this phenomenon.
