"After Shattering Glass Ceiling, Women CEOs Fall Off the Glass Cliff"

"First introduced by University of Exeter psychology professors Michelle Ryan and Alexander Haslam about a decade ago, the glass cliff refers to the conditions under which women are more likely to be promoted to the top. They found that female CEOs seemed more desirable for companies in crisis or distress.

The thinking is that women are more likely to have traits that lend well to crisis management: the ability to multitask, greater empathy, excellent problem solving skills... 

Once a woman breaks the glass ceiling, she's more likely to be put at a disadvantage by having to take a turnaround job. She can't just lead--she needs to save."
