Women enter the workforce at nearly the same rate as men. Yet by the time C-suite leadership opportunities emerge, that representation is cut in half.
ALERT!! New data from LinkedIn's Economic Graph in the World Economic Forum’s Global Gender Gap Report shows women hold 46% of entry-level roles across 57 economies, but only 23% of C-suite positions. After a decade of limited gains, progress in women’s leadership has now stalled for four consecutive years.
And it's not only showing up in leadership pipelines. LinkedIn members identifying as founders have more than tripled since 2022, yet women’s share remains stuck at just 28%, and those female founders are less likely to have AI skills than their male counterparts.
To me, this challenge isn’t about a lack of ambition or talent. It's a signal that too many of the systems that shape who advances, who leads, and who gets to build companies are broken. WE MUST FIX THIS!!!
The good news? We know what DOES work. Focusing on coaching and skills development, sponsoring high-performing women, and ensuring accountability exists at senior levels is critical to bringing more women into the equation.

AI is creating some of the biggest opportunities in today's job market. But who REALLY gets access to them?
LinkedIn's Economic Graph team's new research on women in the AI economy highlights an important challenge. AI roles are among the fastest-growing and highest-paying jobs, yet women account for just 26% of new hires into those roles, and representation declines even further at senior levels.
That gap matters because this isn't just a story about technology. It's a story about opportunity.
As AI reshapes work, we have a chance to build the pathways for more women to enter, advance, and lead the future of work as the AI economy grows.
I'd encourage everyone to spend some time with the findings because understanding how opportunity is changing is one of the first steps to helping more people participate in it! 💪

Choosing a college is one of the first big decisions young people make about their future.
That's why I love the LinkedIn Top Colleges ranking. It's not based on prestige alone. It's grounded in what happens AFTER graduation, from career growth and hiring outcomes to networking, entrepreneurship, and skill development.
💡 This year, we expanded beyond the Top 50 with rankings for AI talent, engineering, business, HBCUs, liberal arts colleges, and more. Because there's no single definition of success, and students deserve better tools to find the path that's right for them.
On a personal note...I was thrilled to see UC San Diego, where I earned a master’s degree, recognized among the schools with the highest share of recent alumni building AI skills. 🤖
The future of work is changing fast. It's encouraging to see higher education evolving alongside it.

I've called Austin home for years, and it's been incredible to watch the city grow and evolve with what companies now call it home.
What makes it stand out today is as mix of established companies, startups, venture capital, investors and talent - especially from UT Austin - that continues to fuel its growth.
That's reflected in LinkedIn's new Cities on the Rise report, where Austin once again ranks among the country's fastest-growing markets. It's also part of a broader trend we're seeing in our data: more professionals are looking beyond traditional hubs for opportunity.
Lastly, it's also an incredibly fun and easy city to live in with world-class food music and outdoor activities.
