Do women have more sponsors then men?

Answer 1

Research suggests that women often face challenges in securing sponsors compared to men, primarily due to systemic biases and networking dynamics. While women may have access to mentorship, sponsorship—which typically involves more active advocacy and career advancement support—tends to be less prevalent for them. However, some studies indicate that when women do have sponsors, they may benefit from enhanced visibility and career opportunities. Overall, the sponsorship landscape remains unequal, with men generally having more access to sponsors in many professional fields.
