Problem
Studies show that men will apply for a role when they meet 60% of the criteria, whereas women will often wait until they feel they meet 100% of the criteria before applying.
Answer the following questions:
a) Why do you think this might be happening?
b) Consider a time when you or someone you know may have passed on an opportunity- what might have influenced your/their decision? What was the short and long term impact?
What can be done to encourage women?
