Female employees experiences faster career progression than their male counterparts, according to new data. A study carried out by the Chartered Management Institute and Remuneration Economics found that the average female team leader is five years younger than her male colleague, which may be good news for female graduates looking to climb the career ladder. The proportion of women holding senior roles was also seen to increase, from 31 per cent in 2006 to 35.7 per cent this year. Additionally, more women (63.4 per cent ) reported receiving bonuses than men (55.9 per cent). Val Lawson, chair of the Women in Management Network, said that the positive statistics are balanced by a different trend for increasing resignation among women which was uncovered in the survey. "The fact that the proportion of women in senior positions continues to grow is encouraging, but their increasing likelihood to resign is a cause for concern," she remarked. The Women in Management Network is part of the Chartered Management Institute.
