They also present the poten\u00adti\u00adal benefits for compa\u00adnies when women are incre\u00adasing\u00adly in leader\u00adship positi\u00adons. We will address three key aspects here.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>In German family businesses, female succes\u00adsors are rare \u2013 why is&nbsp;that?<\/h2>\n<p>The causes of this situa\u00adti\u00adon lie in a centu\u00adries-old value system. This clear\u00adly defined the divisi\u00adon of roles between the sexes, and is still slow to change today. Further\u00admo\u00adre, tradi\u00adtio\u00adnal ways of thinking still prevail when assig\u00adning leader\u00adship roles, and a marked pay gap between men and women persists. Both of these factors only contri\u00adbu\u00adte to a limit\u00aded extent in this country to sharpe\u00adning women\u2019s self-percep\u00adti\u00adon for leader\u00adship roles. In additi\u00adon, compared to its European neigh\u00adbours, Germa\u00adny does not have the best politi\u00adcal frame\u00adwork condi\u00adti\u00adons to easily enable women to recon\u00adci\u00adle work and family life.<\/p>\n<p>In view of the demogra\u00adphic develo\u00adp\u00adment of the coming decades alone and the associa\u00adted effects on our natio\u00adnal econo\u00admy, a rethink must take place among compa\u00adnies and politicians.<\/p>\n<h2>What are the arguments for women in leader\u00adship positions?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>First:<\/strong> The rapid and constant change in the world of work \u2013 keyword: digita\u00adli\u00adsa\u00adti\u00adon \u2013 incre\u00adasing\u00adly demands flexi\u00adbi\u00adli\u00adty, creati\u00advi\u00adty and openness. Quali\u00adties that women funda\u00admen\u00adtal\u00adly bring with them as a resource.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Second\u00adly:<\/strong> Women lead coope\u00adra\u00adtively. They take a more holistic view of the situa\u00adti\u00adon and empathe\u00adti\u00adcal\u00adly weigh their decis\u00adi\u00adons. Speci\u00adfi\u00adcal\u00adly in the succes\u00adsi\u00adon process, this means, for examp\u00adle, that they are more likely to engage openly in \u201etandem leader\u00adship\u201c with young and old. Further\u00admo\u00adre, they do not priori\u00adti\u00adse the separa\u00adti\u00adon from the predecessor.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Third\u00adly:<\/strong> Young women are also more willing to seek exter\u00adnal help and support than male succes\u00adsors. A charac\u00adte\u00adristic that tends to help the develo\u00adp\u00adment of compa\u00adnies and offers a good outlook.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Keyword digiti\u00adsa\u00adti\u00adon \u2013 what oppor\u00adtu\u00adni\u00adties does it offer for&nbsp;women?<\/h2>\n<p>A new freedom has emerged in managing work tasks. Many compa\u00adnies are rethin\u00adking their approa\u00adches. With the help of new techni\u00adcal develo\u00adp\u00adments, \u201ejob sharing\u201c, \u201ehome office\u201c, or \u201epart-time soluti\u00adons\u201c can be imple\u00admen\u00adted, for examp\u00adle. In light of the fact that this not only facili\u00adta\u00adtes child\u00adca\u00adre but will also help child\u00adren care for their parents in the coming decades, these flexi\u00adble working models will play an even more important role. It is alrea\u00addy apparent that women are incre\u00adasing\u00adly using and shaping these new oppor\u00adtu\u00adni\u00adties for themselves.<\/p>\n<h4>Tips for further reading:<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kern-unternehmensnachfolge.com\/en\/comment-unsolvent-company-successions-threaten-our-well-being-2\/\">Comment: Unresol\u00adved compa\u00adny succes\u00adsi\u00adons endan\u00adger our prosperity<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"yoast-link-suggestion__value\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kern-unternehmensnachfolge.com\/en\/dihk-report-2016-growing-challenges-for-companies-succession-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span class=\"caps\">DIHK<\/span>: Challenges for compa\u00adny succes\u00adsi\u00adons are growing<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"yoast-link-suggestion__value\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kern-unternehmensnachfolge.com\/en\/the-advisory-council-in-the-family-business-sensible-instrument-of-business-succession-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Adviso\u00adry Board in a Family Business \u2013 A Meaningful Instru\u00adment for Business Succession<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"yoast-link-suggestion__value\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kern-unternehmensnachfolge.com\/en\/steigende-zahl-von-unternehmensverkaeufen-in-osnabrueck-erwartet-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Rising number of compa\u00adny sales forecast in Osnabr\u00fcck<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"yoast-link-suggestion__value\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kern-unternehmensnachfolge.com\/en\/kfw-analysis-enterprise-succession-in-medium-sized-businesses-burning-topic-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">KfW \u2013 Analy\u00adsis: Business succes\u00adsi\u00adon in the <span class=\"caps\">SME<\/span> sector is a burning issue<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"yoast-link-suggestion__value\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kern-unternehmensnachfolge.com\/en\/the-cost-of-a-business-succession-or-a-successful-ma-project-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The costs of a business succes\u00adsi\u00adon or an M<span class=\"amp\">&amp;<\/span>A project<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"yoast-link-suggestion__value\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kern-unternehmensnachfolge.com\/en\/how-to-find-serious-advisors-for-business-sales\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">How do you recog\u00adni\u00adse a reputa\u00adble business sale consultant?<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kern-unternehmensnachfolge.com\/en\/webinars\/\">Free webinars on business succession<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\">\n\n\n<div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list\">\n<div id=\"faq-question-69a1827788c8c\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question\">Why are there current\u00adly still so few female compa\u00adny successors?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer\">\n\n<p>The funda\u00admen\u00adtal cause is a value system shaped over centu\u00adries that clear\u00adly defined gender roles.
