The Role and Status of Women in Management Positions in Contemporary Organizations in Montenegro

Abstract

Companies in Montenegro are beginning to recognize the importance of the active participation of women in management positions and decision-making bodies. In this way, they aim to encourage and support positive business strategies, challenge prevailing stereotypes and demonstrate the economic benefits of embracing gender diversity in their industry.

Employers who see intellectual capital as valuable information that can generate profits recognize the direct correlation between investing in highly educated women and a company's ability to compete effectively in today's dynamic business environment. Based on statistical data, women in our country have recently played a significant role in increasing the number of persons with higher or professional education. The purpose of this research was to analyze relevant data in order to investigate the role and status of women in management positions in contemporary organizations in Montenegro, with a focus on gender equality.
