Despite real progress, women remain rare enough in elite positions of power that their presence still evokes a sense of wonder. In through the labyrinth, Alice Eagly and Linda Carli examine why womens paths to power remain difficult to traverse.


First, Eagly and Carli prove that the glass ceiling is no longer a useful metaphor and offer seven reasons why. They propose the labyrinth as a better image and explain how to navigate through it. This important and practical book addresses such critical questions as: How far have women actually come as leaders? Do stereotypes and prejudices still limit womens opportunities? Do people resist womens leadership more than mens? And, do organisations create obstacles to women who would be leaders?


This books rich analysis is founded on scientific research from psychology, economics, sociology, political science, and management. The authors ground their conclusions in that research and invoke a wealth of engaging anecdotes and personal accounts to illustrate the practical principles that emerge.


With excellent leadership in short supply, no group, organisation, or nation can afford to restrict womens access to leadership roles. This book evaluates whether such restrictions are present and, when they are, what we can do to eliminate them.
