GENEVA (CMC) – A new study by the International Labour Organization (ILO) has found that Jamaica has the highest proportion of women managers, globally, ahead of countries like the United States and the United Kingdom

The study also found that while women are still under-represented in top management, the number of women in senior and middle management positions has increased over the last 20 years.

The study entitled “Women in Business and Management, Gaining Momentum”, found that the proportion of women managers in Jamaica stood at 59.3 per cent, while Yemen has the least with 2.1 per cent.

I wonder how much of this development in JA is due to progressive hiring/promotion policies and how much is due to the underachievment of our men?

The fact that UWI and UTECH is full of women says something.

Men are in crisis in all areas... especially Black men. But we're just the canaries in the coal mine.

It's systemic

Yes, You Are Correct

If I interpret you correctly, this is one of your best posts in a long while, Brickie! The Lord knows that under the leadership of men, we have been brought to our knees here in the Caribbean (as others have been elsewhere)!

Also, I cannot help but reflect on the dominant, invaluable roles that women tend to have in the average family/home. In fact, I have found it relatively easy, over the years, to immediately know which home has a woman in ddecision making positions just by entering through the front door!!

[Bricktop]

the best set up is to have a woman figurehead but a male as her consigliere

[Gamma]

will she listen?

[Gamma]

i suspect that you have NOT interpreted correctly.

[Bricktop]

[Bricktop]
