dc.description.abstract Women have made a remarkable move in workforce participation in Sri Lanka. Researchers have shown that women’s participation in strategic decision making is vital to the organization’s success and there are visible and invisible challenges that hinder women when reaching higher management positions. However, little is known about the representation of women in the higher managerial positions in the Logistics industry in Sri Lanka. If the women’s participation in strategic decision making is vital to the organization and if little is known about the representation of women in the higher managerial positions in the Logistics industry in Sri Lanka, then more needs to know why the current percentage in women’s representation in top management positions is low. The purpose of the study is to explore “Why women are underrepresented in the higher managerial positions in the Logistics industry in Sri Lanka”. en_US
