Why certain sectors are good for women
Hello all - the FTSE Women Leaders report shows that the below five sectors have the best proportion of women in leadership positions. For context, the average is around 34-35%.
| Sectors | Women in leadership roles |
| Media | 41.10% |
| Utilities | 41.50% |
| Retail | 39.80% |
| Banks | 39.40% |
| Insurance | 39.40% |
I'm after some commentary for each of these sectors and why they are appearing in the top five here. Why are these sectors particularly good for women, and why is it that these sectors are moving more quickly on gender equality?
