About this listen
Why are women still underrepresented in leadership despite decades of progress? Because of the systemic barriers that continue to hold them back.
Join Rachel Schofield in conversation with Sharon Peake, CPsychol (Founder & CEO, Shape Talent) and Dr Priscila Pereira Law PhD FCIPD (Director of Research & Innovation, Shape Talent) for the launch of the 3rd Edition of the landmark Three Barriers® Report.
Drawing on 7,500+ voices, 95+ references, and fresh global data, this new edition explores:
🔹 The Three Barriers® to women’s career progression
🔹 Sub-barriers like stereotypes, sponsorship gaps, and the likeability penalty.
🔹 Why personal barriers aren’t about women “lacking confidence,” but about workplaces penalising ambition.
🔹 What good looks like when organisations dismantle barriers systemically.
