What will be an ideal response?
The glass ceiling refers to all the invisible barriers that may keep women (and other underrepresented individuals) from rising to the upper rungs of the corporate ladder, regardless of their qualifications or achievements. The term “glass cliff” refers to a leadership position fraught with risk, which occurs when a company needs to be saved from failure or from a high profile scandal. The glass cliff effect refers to a phenomenon in which women get called upon more often than men into leadership positions fraught with risk.
