According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, an estimated 56 percent of women will be employed or looking for work by the year 2024 -- that's a nearly one percent decrease from 2015.

This hour, we take a closer look at those trends and consider the future of women in the so-called “C-suite.”
Are you a corporate leader? Have you noticed a shift in the number of women placed in top-tier roles? We want to hear from you.
