“In recent years, however, the percentage of women in top management positions and on corporate boards has stalled:

• As recently as 2011, their presence in top management positions in S&P 1500 companies was less than 9 percent.
• Although there has been a slow but steady increase, progress for women is uneven; while 19 percent of S&P 500 board directors are women, only 15 percent of directors of S&P mid-cap companies are women, compared to 12.6 percent of directors of S&P small-cap companies.
• Overall, just 15.8 percent of directors of S&P 1500 companies are women.
• Companies with female CEOs tend to have more female directors; however, as of October, 2014, there were only 67 female CEOs in the S&P 1500.”
