About the event

Why do women’s careers so often stall, shift, or diverge from men’s in the workplace?

In connection with this year’s International Women’s Day, CBS Executive Education takes a closer look at the gender gap in career trajectories. Building on the research project 'The Gender Career Gap: An Analysis of Occupational Segregation and Career Progression' from CBS Associate Professor Annaïg Morin, this event explores how workplace structures, norms, and career pathways shape women’s opportunities over time.

Bringing together both research and practitioner perspectives, the discussion will feature insights from change-making companies and thought leaders working to close the gender career gap.
