4 million is the figure for the top job? America has 300 million people when I last checked, third highest in the world.
Its about capacity also, and not always women being disallowed opportunity. If you ask yourself, why at least 40% of world CEO/CFO/Presidents are not women, its not always due to women being denied fair opportunity, but also, because there is not enough candidates that eventually are able to go that high. Also, it is also the choice. Such articles are something I very much disagree with because they present things as: "because women are not CEO's in majority of corporations of the world, it must be because they are being denied fair opportunity". which is not always true, because it is also about choice. A lot of people, with capacity to do much more, still decide to do something, under their capacity, because of one universal truth called Love.
