Marriage, family not behind erosion in women's career aspirations: Bain
[SINGAPORE] Women embark on careers with high expectations and aspirations for advancement but this confidence evaporates as they enter mid-career.
A new Bain & Company study of 1,000 men and women in the US spread across a wide spectrum of ages and career levels titled Everyday Moments of Truth found that 43 per cent of women aspire to be in top management during the first two years of their position, compared with 34 per cent of men at that stage.
Both genders are equally confident about their ability to reach a top management position at that stage. This suggests that women are entering the workforce with the wind in their sails, feeling highly qualified after success at university.
