Resumo(s)
This study aims at refocusing attention to the current situation of the gender gap and
female aspirations to acquire leadership positions in the Generation Y. Through an
online survey, expectations and preferences towards leadership of recently graduated
Millennials were investigated. Results revealed, despite no evident differences in
qualification and background between gender in the examined cohort, the gender gap in
terms of leadership still persists. While men and women feel equally prepared to take on
a leadership position after graduation, they prefer different leadership styles and plan on
leading differently. Both genders intend to take on leading positions. Yet, women aim
lower than men and feel less supported by their companies. Therefore, companies need
to start creating gender-neutral corporate cultures with a support system that empowers
high potential female Millennials to thrive for a seat in the board room.
