Ms. CEO

Yesterday’s edition of the Wall Street Journal featured an article titled “More Women are Primed to Land CEO Roles”. Really? This was an exciting headline, however beyond the hyperbole of the article one statistic stood out, and that is that just 35 women are CEO’s of Fortune 1000 companies. That is a shocking and embarrassing 4%. I wonder how real estate company statistics compare.

Tony LoPinto is the Global Sector Leader of Korn/Ferry International's Real Estate Practice and founder of SelectLeaders. The views expressed in this article are the author's own.
