Glass Ceilings and Self Doubt

A recent survey "Ambition and Gender at Work" by Europe's Institute of Leadership & Management found that almost three-quarters of women believed a "glass ceiling" exists, barring them from senior roles.

They surveyed 3,000 male and female managers and found that 'lack of confidence in their abilities and lower career expectations are holding women back' as almost half of the women surveyed admitted feelings of self doubt.

What about you?

Do you have feelings of self doubt?

Have you created a personal glass ceiling?

How will you break that ceiling?
