Summary

Introduction

In 1978 on the BBC panel, Marilyn Loden called an invisible barrier to success for women during their careers as the “Glass Ceiling”, 100 Women: Why I invented the glass ceiling phrase. Management consultant Marilyn Loden coined the phrase almost 40 years ago but says it is still as relevant as ever She used the term “glass ceiling” in 1978 during a panel debate about women’s ambitions. People who cross the glass ceiling still have far less power and less advantage than their male counterparts Another view takes a look at the gender differences in decoration, changing the fact that women prefer to be in occupations that may fit with the stereotypes of women's gender since they earn more than the male-dominated profession. If they were pursuing a job in the maledominated profession, they would probably receive two-thirds of the value of male's salaries within the similar industry (Gabriel & Schmidt, 2006)
