Sommario/riassunto

There are subtle but potent differences in the ways decisions are made to promote men and women. This publication looks at these differences through a study conducted at one Fortune 500 company. It discusses the several ways that the promotion decision process can



undermine women’s advancement and outlines strategies for making balanced decisions.
