Hayward Business ReviewSummary: Although women today outperform men in educational settings, they immediately lose ground once they enter the workforce, moving up the career ladder at significantly lower rates. One of the big reasons for this, say three McKinsey consultants, is that women aren’t building as much experience capital—the knowledge, skills, and wisdom that can be gained only on the job. Multiple systemic issues are at work here, but there are actions women can take to address this problem themselves. They include finding supportive employers with a strong, diverse learning culture and smart strategies; making big, bold career moves that grow their skills; taking on leadership and line roles; choosing growing occupations and industries; and deepening their familiarity with technology, particularly AI.- Reproduced
