Episode 222: Women's Path to Leadership and the Power of the MBA

Women hold just six percent of CEO roles at F500 companies (that's 31 women vs. 469 men); of those 31 women, nearly half have MBAs. In 2005, zero business schools reported more than 40% female enrollment, but that number jumped to 19 business schools in 2019. Clearly, there is still much work to be done in this domain. In this special edition of the Clear Admit Podcast, "Women's Path to Leadership & the Power of the MBA," SMU Cox's Jill Melton and Annie Cadigan Dunlap discuss the current state of affairs when it comes to women in the C-Suite and women in leadership more broadly, as well as how an MBA, and the Cox program in particular, can help place more women leadership roles. This episode was recorded in Dallas, Texas and Paris, France. It was produced by Dennis Crowley in leafy West Philadelphia.
