Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research and data consistently show that the highest levels of management, such as CEOs and board members, are the least diverse in terms of gender and race. In 2019, only 6.6% of Fortune 500 CEOs were women and only 11% were people of color. This lack of diversity has been attributed to factors such as implicit bias, limited access to leadership development opportunities for underrepresented groups, and a "pipeline problem" where there are fewer women and people of color in lower-level positions from which to promote.
