Today, women are often very well trained for management positions and have both specialist and leadership skills. In order to take the step into a management position or the next management level, both women and men see it as sensible to continue to encourage and support them in this process.
A central reason for the underrepresentation of women in leadership positions continues to be their primary responsibility for so-called care work. This has an impact on their employment and career development - which also applies to men with care responsibilities. Facilitating work-life integration for both women and men is therefore essential to achieving equality.
