Abstract

With the Industrial Revolution, women, who started to be employed for wages, started to take a more active place in the business world with globalization. The sole thing that does not change in the constantly developing and changing business world from the Industrial Revolution to the present is the perspective to women. Women are viewed as cheap labor and the jobs they can do are determined by society. Women, make up half percent of the world’s population were excluded from managerial duties. Barriers to women's access to top positions in business life are named as the glass ceiling. In this research, women working in the top management of BIST companies in Turkey and going beyond the glass ceiling were researched. Systematic scanning, which involves the process of searching different data sources by using certain keywords or separators for a certain time period to find an answer to a research question, is generally used to define the current situation. This study is carried out to identify the women managers who work in managerial positions in the companies traded in Borsa Istanbul. In order to determine the status of women in management, the distribution of the research data obtained through systematic scanning was determined and visualized.
