January 10, 2018 at 11:03 pmThe advance degree statistics is what is incorrect. “Petersen institute” source is a little vague. What is Petersen institute study is your reference? The US census has a very different percentage of advance degrees in the US.

January 11, 2018 at 10:06 amStatista, a statistics portal which collates numbers from up to 18,000 sources, notes that in 2014/15, about 307,000 male and 452,000 female students earned a master’s degree in the United States.

The Petersen Institute study shows that growing the percentage of female leaders in the C-suite would likely benefit the bottom line.
