The concept of the “glass cliff”, or when women are sent to the pipebreaker. This concept consists of appealing to women in times of failure.

The promotion is beautiful but poisonous. There is no shortage of cases of women propelled to the edge of the glass cliff. The more difficult the challenge is to overcome, the more “chances” they have of being called to the top of the hierarchy. Result: it is they who will have to assume the consequences of an almost announced shipwreck.
