Abstract
This paper is prepared to explore the challenges women managers encounter in their
careers. To this end relevant literature was reviewed to assess the state of research in
the area. Furthermore, 25 women executives in different organizations were surveyed
through interviews and using questionnaires. The questions were not only close-ended
but open-ended questions so as to encourage transparent idea sharing. Cross
tabulations were derived using related data. Analysis based on these tables led to the
salient fact that women in managerial positions face gender based discrimination.
Moreover, based on both the analysis and suggestions from the surveyed group,
recommendations are given that are directed at tackling problems women face. Also,
areas that would be of interest to other fellow researchers have been indicated
