Explain the concepts of the glass ceiling and the glass cliff and their relationship to each other.
What will be an ideal response?
Glass ceiling is an invisible, but real, barrier that keeps females from rising to managerial levels in organizations. The glass cliff is a newer, but still problematic, concept. Once a woman has broken through the glass ceiling, that individual may still wind up in positions or circumstances in which they fail—or fall off the slippery glass cliff. The individual may have purposefully been put into higher-level position where the likelihood of failure, experiencing discrimination, lack of support, etc. was high. A female may face multiple glass ceilings and glass cliffs throughout her career.
