2013 Women’s Research—Defining Success
As part of our 2013 celebration of International Women's Day, Accenture released a global research study that found more than two-thirds of female professionals around the world—and the same number of male respondents—say they can “have it all.” In fact, having both a successful career and a full life outside work is so important that many choose a job based on its potential impact on work-life balance.
