Business organizations, far from being gender blind or gender neutral, have reflected over the time the male values and rules made up by the men at the helm. Nowdays, however, the dynamics and the relationship between male and female in the firm have been deeply rethought. In this perspective, the present study proposes a reflection on the phenomenon of female work. By means of a descriptive analysis, the situations of gender equality/disparity in the firms in four regions of the South of Italy. As the empirical data highlighted, it is still evident in these areas a deep gender disparity, not only in terms of women participation in the labor market, but especially in their career progression and rise in top positions, provoking a serious delay of the economic and social growth.
Keywords: Key words: gender, female leadership, diversity management, glass ceiling.
