WOMEN FOR THE TOP

"Young women need to learn that it is natural to have a leading role as a woman"

Managing director Kaan Bludau and manager Claudia Whitcher about the lack of self-confidence of women in professional life, hidden chauvinism and different management styles in companies.


MR BLUDAU, WHAT MAKES YOUR COLLEAGUE CLAUDIA WHITCHER A GOOD HEADHUNTER?

MRS WHITCHER, YOU OFTEN PLACE FEMALE LEADERS AND YOU ARE COMMITTED TO THEIR EQUALITY. IS IT CRITICAL FOR YOU TO BE CONVINCING, SINCE YOU HAVE A MALE SUPERIOR WITH KAAN BLUDAU?

27 percent is the proportion of women in the executive boards of German companies. This means that Germany reached the 10th place (out of 34) in a European comparison. At the top is Iceland with 44 percent.


WHAT IS THE MAIN DIFFERENCE WHEN YOU INTERVIEW A WOMAN OR A MAN??

Claudia Whitcher: Frequently, the first interview with a woman takes longer than with a man. Most men know what they want and do not doubt their abilities. They come straight to the point. Women are more likely to waver and doubt their skills or deal with other emotional factors.

WHAT DO YOU THINK WHY THIS MIGHT BE?

Claudia Whitcher: Women take more consideration: they consider family concerns. For example, if I offer a candidate a position away from their place of residence, they first want to consider whether moving is a good step for their husband or, if appropriate, their children as well. Thus, women are quickly eliminated. Most men automatically assume that their wife and children would come along.

ISN’T THIS UNCONDITIONAL SUPPORT OF THE WOMAN FOR HER HUSBAND MINIMISED NOWADAYS?

Claudia Whitcher: Yes, that's right. However, it is still very rare that both partners have a great career. And there is also the upside down case that the man stays at home and the wife makes a great career.


WHAT DO YOU SUGGEST THEN HOW WOMEN SHOULD BEHAVE? OR CAN YOU JUST DO IT WRONG?

Claudia Whitcher: Unfortunately, that's still a question of education and culture. Young women need to learn that being a woman with a leadership role is a matter of course. Many women see this image unfeminine. However, top executives may not think like this.

Kaan Bludau: Unfortunately, women still have to prove themselves, even today. In management there is a lot of hidden humiliation against women. The bosses have to admit and act. They cannot stand and watch.

Claudia Whitcher: Most women in a leadership position have made it so far through male support. Mutually women support rather limited in this regard.
