Described as its most comprehensive look at the UK publishing market's workforce, the third consecutive annual study from the Publishers Association may have a surprise for some who are concerned that women in the business don't have enough representation in leadership positions.
The 2019 survey's responses from a total 12,702 employees indicate that 55 percent of the British industry's senior leadership and executive-level roles were held by women. In dividing up those two categories, women held 53 percent of the executive roles and 55 percent of senior leadership roles.
