I found this chart very interesting, as it asks people from different countries what percentage of Fortune 500 CEOs are women. The results are very interesting as there is a huge overestimate, leading with Mexico who assumed 29% of the CEOs to be women, when in reality only 3% of Fortune 500 CEOs are women. This chart provides ample information, especially by outlining the question asked and the percentages asked. However, it does not list how many people participated in this survey per country, it only presents the overall number as n=19,428, making me believe the information may be skewed. Like noted in the podcast, statistical charts will purposefully exclude information to present skewed or biased information. Also, it would be beneficial to note the demographics of people asked: racially, socioeconomically, and age–all, which can provide very different results. Additionally, we do not know how the respondents were contacted, so that could have an effect on the results. Ultimately, I thought it was interesting that people all over the world overestimated the percentage of women as CEOs, but the reliability of the chart is questionable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
