abstract

  • Women and minorities face a "glass ceiling" that limits their advancement toward top management in organizations throughout U.S. society This article reviews the extant literature and discusses why this is so, using theoretical constructs from psychology and other social sciences that cover both individual and systemic factors. Recent research evidence is cited, remedies used to halt differential treatment are outlined, and further research is suggested.
