Has your career hit a glass ceilling?

There was a lot in the news yesterday about the number of Women (or lack of) in top jobs in the UK. The fifth annual Sex and Power report shows a drop in the number of women attaining the top jobs in Britain. They hold just 11% of FTSE 100 directorships and account for only 19.3% of MPs.

We thought it would be interesting to hear from our readers, what their thoughts were about the 'Glass Ceiling' at their work. Do you feel that it is harder for women to get promoted? Are there woman at top jobs in your industry/ company? Is it getting harder rather than easier?


It would be great to hear from the future leaders of industry i.e. you guys. Is the glass ceiling just at senior levels or do women find it harder to get promoted at all levels?
