Abstract

Zusammenfassung Die geringe Repräsentation von Frauen in Führungspositionen hat die EU-Kommission dazu veranlasst, Maßnahmen und Ziele für eine gleichberechtigte Führungsverantwortung zu definieren. Zeitgleich haben die Corona-Maßnahmen zu tiefgreifenden Veränderungen der Arbeitsorganisation geführt. Neben einem Überblick zur Situation von Frauen in Führungspositionen wird ein Augenmerk auf die Wirkungen der Corona-Maßnahmen gelegt, um Chancen und Risiken zu identifizieren. Diese Maßnahmen können durch Verhaltensänderungen mit sowohl positiven als auch negativen Effekten verbunden sein. Langfristig dürften Frauen von den veränderten Bedingungen jedoch profitieren.
