Abstract
With women rapidly becoming a larger part of its workforce and its customer base, Abbott got aggressive about increasing the number of women in leadership positions. A sustained five‐year diversity effort on multiple fronts is showing laudable results. Women have made gains at all management levels across the organization—including international and R&D, two areas where long‐standing myths and misconceptions pose additional barriers to diversity. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
