New research published on Wednesday by the Global Institute for Women’s Leadership, Ipsos MORI and the Policy Institute surveyed around 20,000 people from 28 countries in an effort to understand public perceptions of what helps or hinders women’s equality in the UK and around the world. In the UK, 26 per cent of those polled said intelligence was the most important factor in helping women progress, dropping to just 17 per cent for men. Similarly, 37 per cent of UK respondents said working hard was essential for women’s success, compared with just 29 per cent for men.
