    Obstáculos en el liderazgo femenino en el sector textil del Valle de Aburrá : la experiencia de diez líderes
    (Universidad EAFIT, 2020) Velásquez Gómez, Maria Paula; López Gallego, Francisco
    Objective: To identify which are the main barriers perceived by ten businesswomen from the textile industry in Valle de Aburra due to their gender and how they overcome the oncoming obstacles. Method: A qualitative study was carried out using a semi-structured interview with ten leading women in the textile sector of Valle de Aburrá. Conclusions: The main barrier that women have to face in order to access to strategic apexes is society because it still stigmatizes women due to their gender condition. In addition, the family responsibilities of women represents another barrier not only because of social stigma but because women still feel bad about dedicating extra hours to their work comparing to the time they spend with house duties. One of the tools that women have used to grow professionally is education.
