Episode Description

The percentage of women CEOs is dismally low, especially in top companies. How bad is it? Women are just 4.6% of S&P 500 CEOs and 4.8% of Fortune 500 CEOs (an all-time high, up from 1998). Game-Changing Women Radio executive producer and SAP CLO Jenny Dearborn is committed to correcting this. “Every day should be International Women’s Day until equality is achieved.” What are the success secrets of the women who've made it to the corner office? What is their advice for women aspiring to break through the so-called ‘glass ceiling’? Our panelists will share first-hand stories, insights and lessons about how they've managed managing and made it to the top. The experts speak: Colleen Abdoulah, WOW! Internet, Cable and Phone: “The game of business is very much like the game of tennis. Those who fail to master the basics of serving well, usually lose" (Unknown). Sharon Matthews, eLynx: “Strategy beats strategy" (Sun Tzu paraphrased). Join us for Views from the C-Suite: Women CEOs.
