This not only shows us how travel and tourism is still a male-led industry, but an industry struggling to embark on the change expected of it.<\/p>\n<p>The \u2018Sun, Sand and Ceilings\u2019 report explores current disparities in gender equality on company boards in a wide range of tourism and hospitality businesses. As female employees are largely concentrated in lower-skilled, less well-paid roles, says Equality in Tourism, it is critical to have female representations at board-level in order to provide others with strong female mentors and role models, as well as give realistic prospects of promotion and opportunities.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1988 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/travindy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Screen-Shot-2018-11-14-at-15.19.29-225x142.png\" alt=\"Equality in Tourism report shows limited progress for women at top of tourism\" width=\"379\" height=\"239\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Trade publication\u00a0<em>TTG<\/em> has featured <a href=\"http:\/\/equalityintourism.org\/women-in-boardrooms-the-new-report\/\">Equality in Tourism\u2019s new, updated report<\/a> as the cover story in their latest issue.\u00a0The feature quotes EiT&#8217;s chair and one of the reports\u2019 authors, Dr Angela Kalisch, who expresses the importance of women at boardroom level as not only a fundamental part of progression in terms of responsible and sustainable tourism, but that \u201cyou need diversity in management structures to drive change\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>You can read the full <em>TTG<\/em> feature by clicking <a href=\"https:\/\/content.yudu.com\/web\/2zc2\/0Auv9i\/TTG-15-11-18\/html\/index.html?page=2&amp;origin=reader\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">here<\/a>.
