Abstract :

The Concept Of "breaking The Glass Ceiling" Refers To Overcoming The Invisible Yet Persistent Barriers That Prevent Women From Ascending To Top Leadership Positions, Particularly In Male-dominated Sectors. Despite Significant Progress In Education And Workforce Participation, Women Remain Underrepresented In Executive Roles And Decision-making Positions Globally. This Abstract Explores The Structural, Cultural, And Organizational Challenges That Contribute To Gender Disparities In Leadership. It Also Highlights Successful Female Leaders Who Have Defied The Odds And The Transformative Impact Of Inclusive Leadership On Organizations And Society. The Paper Further Examines Initiatives Such As Mentorship Programs, Diversity Policies, And Societal Shifts That Are Instrumental In Empowering Women To Break Through These Barriers. Achieving Gender Parity In Leadership Is Not Only A Matter Of Equity But A Strategic Imperative For Innovation, Performance, And Sustainable Development. Key Words: Glass Ceiling , Gender Equality,workplace Discrimination,gender Bias,women Empowerment, Leadership Roles, Diversity And Inclusion.
