On June 21st, Radio Ink posed the question, “Does Radio Have Enough Female Leadership?” to Radio’s 100 Most Influential Women in Radio.
The answer was an overwhelming, yet unsurprising no.
This broad question was broken down into two subsets. First, the Radio personalities were asked, “Do you believe the playing field is 100% fair for both women and men to advance in radio?”
The answers to this question ranged in depth and length, but most discussed the problem with the lack of women in senior leadership roles. Some consented that there is a level of representation in lower-level management, but without millennial females in higher management roles and equal compensation, there is a semi-permanent imbalanced playing field.
And yet, some pushed father arguing that men in executive roles discriminate and keep ‘the boys club’ that has been present in all business enterprises for centuries.
However, one opposing and interesting opinion concluded that the blame doesn’t fall solely on the men making decisions. Women take themselves out of the game – they don’t believe they can advance, so they don’t. This “I can’t, so I won’t” or “I shouldn’t, so I won’t,” problem has trickled into many female journalists’ vernacular. An unconscious feeling to self-censor and self-defeat is something women must overcome in order to advance across all levels of the workforce.
The second question was, “Has radio done a good job of promoting women into management and leadership positions?” Interestingly enough, this was received with a combination of yes’s and no’s. However, the count still stood in the no’s favor.
Some of the responses agreed that historically this was a no, but recently there has been a shift from “may the best man win” to “may the best human win.” However, the gendered problem still seemed to lie in the senior executive leadership roles.
As one personality put it – “The facts are, there are very few women in the Market Manager chair. There’s typically only one woman in each market. Considering the workforce is 50% women, I’d say that’s a poor job.”
