Lack of Mentorship and Sponsorship

Women often face a scarcity of mentorship and sponsorship opportunities in the workplace, which are crucial for career advancement. Male counterparts are more likely to receive guidance and advocacy from higher-ups, partly due to a higher representation of men in leadership positions. This lack of support restricts women's ability to navigate their careers effectively and ascend to top-tier positions.
