Why We Have Too Few Women Leaders [video and #infographic]

There's a famous cigarette advertisement from Virginia Slims targeted at women smokers that said, "You've come a long way baby, to get where you got today". Today's question is, "how far have women actually gotten in the workplace, in government or media and entertainment"?
