Indian women leaders seek top roles, not second fiddle

economictimes.indiatimes.com

Many senior women executives in India are leaving leadership roles due to limited advancement opportunities and better prospects elsewhere. This is creating a shortage of women in top positions. Companies are struggling to fill top roles, especially in profit and loss, as women seek more fulfilling opportunities. Data shows a significant drop in women in senior positions compared to entry-level roles, and stagnation in IT firms. This trend is fueled by retirements, lack of promotions, and the availability of advisory and board positions. Succession planning and the demand for women leaders in various roles are also contributing factors.
