Breaking the glass ceiling begins at home

The biggest reason that alpha women don't become CEOs is because they have made the common, yet fatal, error of marrying an alpha men.

Unfamiliar but compelling argument.
Is it because Korean women like to marry more capable men than they are that it's hard to find successful female CEOs in Korea? Probably true...If Jung Mong-hun (the ex-chairman of the Hyundai Asan Group in Korea) had not passed away, his wife (Hyun Jung-eun) must not have become such CEO.
