Practicing Thought Leadership

Many successful male and female executives possess significant expertise that they have practiced but haven't captured and shared with others.

They haven't used their well developed intellectual and social capital to mentor emerging leaders. Yet, the strength of their proven ideas and concepts could be valuable in teaching others to develop their leadership capability.

For example, three decades after droves of women started business careers, and at a time when fifty percent of all managers and professionals are female, women still comprise fewer than two percent of Fortune 1,000 CEOs and just eight percent of Fortune 500 top earners. The glass ceiling remains unbroken.

The challenge is to help women climb the corporate ladder with leadership development programs, flexible work arrangements and other practices that recognize their unique talents and needs. You can support this effort as a thought leader who provides one proven intellectual or social capital building idea that could move a woman manager up one rung of the corporate ladder.
