"The Glass Ceiling"

    

      According The Free dictionary by Frlex: "Glass Ceiling is an unacknowledged discriminatory barrier that prevents women and minorities from rising to positions of power or responsibility, as within a corporation"(p). More doors are open to women today, but there is to be a "glass ceiling," a level above which women do not rise. "Glass ceiling" is not only barrier which applies for individuals, it is applies for all women as a group, who are keeping from advancing to achieve higher goal just because they are women. Women locked out from the top-management position in bussiness industry, but they could get some leader positions which can marked them as a leader. Very often many smart and high level educated women could not achieve highest job level because they are women and because men don't take them seriously. Many of men have belief that women should be "on their place", it means that women could not have higher level in society than men. Many women hesitate to speak out, fearing it will jeopardize their careers. So they prefer to stay at position that they already got. Also men in corporate management tend not to perceive discrimination as a real problem, thereby making it virtually impossible to implement effective remedies. The most common definition of "glass ceiling" meets in a big bussiness corporations, where people deal with big amount of money, they have unlimited power and a lot responsability.

    Today, there are many more women and minorities in powerful positions, but the glass ceiling is still very real.
