Sound Bites and Statistics from Women Business Leaders [Infographic]

August 16, 2012 By Susan Gunelius

Confidence, inclusivity, and knowledge — those are three of the predominant themes researchers from the University of North Carolina Kenan-Flagler Business School found when studying sound bites and statistics related to women business leaders.

According to the infographic the University of North Carolina researchers put together to visually communicate the data and quotes they collected, “Companies with more equalized gender distribution have 30 percent better IPOs.” Unfortunately, the data also shows, “40 percent of large companies have no women on their boards and only 5 percent of startups are owned by women.” You can view the complete infographic below.
